Talking 2007 Game Thread

Why??? Because Dave, in creating the 2005 game, gave an absolutely blatant clue towards the 2006 game. Think about these tetras for a second: 4 triangles connected on each edge. Alliances of 4 on a Triangular field! It has to be it!

With this comes the style: a triangular field would be difficult to maintain aquatically. So there I would hold off til 2007, if anybody would like to start a thread about that. However, anothe rpossibility is the Krispy Kreme arena. Circular. It would have a hole in the middle where we'd put the human players. In a donut shape, it could be aquatic. The human players would fish little things out and hand them to the robots. It would be marvelous.
Okay, so here's the 2007 thread. What's going to happen in two years?

Water Game.

Besides that, this thread is fairly useless for about 550 more days.

Re: 2007 Game Thread

Gee, 2007, my graduation year (ignore). OK, by then, the anti-gravity floor would've been made, and all teams would have to build around that.

The field would be like a giant orrery, with a large sphere in the center. In order to score, a team would have to take fake asteroids and attach them to the center sphere. @end_of_match: go into orbit around the center sphere.

Just dreaming. LOL

Dave, how does one get into the whole assisting with designing the field and stuff like that?

Sounds like you were asleep and the computer was recording the sounds you were making....
