Walking on mercury, maybe, but a robot so dense it sinks in mercury would probably exceed the weight limit. It would be an interesting game, though...

Dense doesn't necessarly mean heavy. Just heavy for it's size.

I know, but my point was: who wants a robot that holds only one or two poof balls at a time (or water balloons or flags or whatever they're using in 2007)?

Re: 2007 Game Thread

i want a game that involves putting robots and acid together so that teams will have to worry about the coating on their robot.

also if you can play capture the flag and be able to shoot projectiles at the other team alliance.

Re: 2007 Game Thread

I'm not sure how many times this has been said (I'm estimating a value of exactly "far too many"). But I would love to see a water based game in 07. It would be totally awesome.

Actually, if they used clear oil of some type, you wouldn't have to worry about electronics shorting out. People fill their computer cases with olive oil all the time to cool them.

Of course then it might light on fire and it'd be really expensive.
