Re: dlavery game hint

I think the game is going to consist of having to stack objects this year.... I have been intercepting the snail mail, of all the GDC members and they have been receiving an extraordinary amount of free AOL Cd's.... so I think we are going to have to stack AOL Cd's this year



then again, maybe people just shouldn't listen to Big Mike, when he is bored, or tired and can't sleep

Re: dlavery game hint

baby it will be extreem underwater battle bots, i know its been thought of before and i know that in the end it is a huge waste of time money and reasources but wouldnt it be cool just for one year tho throw all of that to the wind, say the heck with it, and have us build the terrifing death traps that are battle bots, and as far as gracious professionalism, helping otherteams would be key, and so would graciously and professionally standing by and watching your bot get totally ripped to shredds.

Have they been sent to those 200 mailboxes from last year?

So, the GDC is trying to provide a public service by creating a use for AOL Cds? Wow, I'm impressed!

What about having to stack the Cd's without srcatching them so they can be used at a later date or make a DJ-bot

Re: dlavery game hint

My analysis:
The water: We can't see the game clearly.
The banana: Dave is saying that our minds will slip up on figuring out the game again.
The blue robot: The game will involve robots.
The light bar on the robot (connected to the "hint" at the Championship): Red vs. Blue, with green target lights.
The fish: Dave is throwing us some red herrings.
The blue line: Random item to throw us off.

By the way, this is a still from the 2006 animation, modified to give a bunch of "fake hints".

Re: dlavery game hint

When does the official game hint come out by the way? I haven't seen any news on this, and it is getting very close to the big day we've been waiting for since last year on this very special day I'm talking about.

Wait about another 1-2 weeks. If it's released at all, it'll be sometime in that window by tradition.

Re: dlavery game hint

perhaps everyone is underthinking things. I belive that the three lights ar eimportant because there r going to be 3 teams of 2 in position stations on oposite ends of the field. The banana is just a farytail - ie dave laverys idea of a joke.
