Re: Next Year's game idea....

I always thought it would be cool to see a giant pyramid in the middle of the field and whoever is on the sides at the end of the match gets some points but whoever is on top gets more points. Or maybe the pyramid covers the whole playing field and the scoring objects would have to be passed over it; also, the robots would never be driving level. Or what if it was a stepped pyrimid, with different tiered levels that have to do with scoring. Or what about an inverted pyramid - like the sides of the field are higher than the center and it all goes down into one point - and it is stepped! Or what if each corner of the field was a different level. Or what if the field was like you were inside half of a sphere, like a totally rounded swimming pool (but empty).

What about something like an elevator or a big conveyor belt or a turntable. Now that would be cool. I've always wanted so see powered elements of the field but the cost would never allow it. Come to think of it, the cost would never allow any of my ideas.
