At least 4 things, not 1.

4 things in the greatly enhance picture

1. The blue moat (a barrier to stop the robot)
2. The fish ( objects you have to fish out on the other side of barrier )
3. Eye ball (sensor on the robot to see the fish )
4. YELLOW Banana Like this year green light (one YELLOW is brighter
indicating whose turn)

I am fairly confident that the robot will be involved atleast to some extent.

I would start with
1.) Robot
2.) Carpet
3.) field lines

I dunno. a game where only one side is on the offensive would make an interesting game. i should stop staring at this picture for hours.

QUICK! SCRUTINIZE EVERY SINGLE PIXEL!!!!!

Ha ha... I prefer this hint over last year's (tangling with pasta, yada yada yada...) b/c the hints are there (see quote), we just have to find them... not like last year where we actually had to come up with them- and yes, I'm lazy at solving riddles (probably because when I get nowhere with them, I get frustrated and give up)... CURSE DAVE AND HIS TRICKERY!!!

The clock is ticking towards kickoff... YAY!!!!

Don't worry, I am sure we can expect a wonderful official hint at the end of december/begining of january

[Donut]

Our official game hint/nights of sleeplessness should begin in about 3 weeks, right?

If we're getting this much speculation over this picture, I can't wait to see how long this year's game hint thread will be.

Okay, that was so obscure I actually had to wiki it.

WOOHOO, i did it on purpose to get dave to comment on it and give us an idea....


well maybe not, but hey, whatever works.

[JaneYoung]

Ok, this is what I - think - I see in our future:

a. a boatload of humor
b. a rules manual that can not be watered down
c. non-slip strategies
d. a whale of a good time building a robust robot

1. Next Years game will have robots
2. There will be a blue alliance
3. There will be three team Alliances
4. The animation will be created by Havabanana productions

There that is it that is what there is to this picture, so lets just ignore it until we get the official hint ok .

nevertheless, we press on undeterred!

Does anybody else see an eye and a wheelchair wheel near the banana? I'll bet that's significant.

Are you sure there will be three team Alliances?
Some regional’s look a little skimpy and barely fill the bracket system
Det just recently reached 30.
Maybe a repeat of 2001 co-operation (4 teams one goal)

Then maybe everyone will be able to participate in the finals?

I dont think the number of teams matter as long as there are enough for 8 alliances in the eliminations.

I just hope there will be a simple game that doesnt require me to put in thousands of hours at GM
