How wrong were you?
The day has arrived and zero hour edges ever closer. Yet there are still many questions left to be asked, How far off were we? Did anyone guess the game or part of it? Was Dave really trying to throw us of the trail or were we imaging things?

So what I want to know is if anyone came very close to figuring out the game or parts of it? Also, did anyone guess it exactly? Has anyone guessed the game in the past?


I know this thread is a little premature but I just could not wait.

If it's got a spinning goal, I'm golden. Of course, I've been predicting that for the past 5 years, so it may not hold that much weight any more...

Re: How wrong were you?
Well, I got my multiple triangular pyramids and teams of three considering that is all I hypothesised on not too bad (course me multi-triangular pyramids was me being sarcastic with connecting it to the simpsons but I was right never the less)

Re: How wrong were you?
I got the stacking part (stack attack), but I didn't know of what. I knew they where going to improve auto. by improving IR or adding different sensors.

I was completely off with everything else.

Re: How wrong were you?
I predicted a slightly longer game time due to the 3 vs 3 angle. I also predicted a larger rectangular field. I was wrong about my guess that robot dimensions would remain same and weight would.
