Go to Post I, being a Trekky myself, will really enjoy a Star Trek themed game if it turns out to be that. I will not enjoy programming the alcubierre warp drive. :D - AveryLevin. [more]

Re: 2007 Serious FRC Game Hint

I like the baseball thoery. Maybe like a shooting gallery in the outfield, and a shooter bot has to sit on home plate and tries to hit the targets and the other bots are attempting to block, with positions switching halfway through game time...
Yeah, I know, Im reaching, but there isn't a whole lot to work with... I miss the riddles.

P.S.- to Dave and the GDC- Enjoying yourselves?

if you look closely, it's clear that they aren't reffering to water (being that such a condition is very hard to build robots for). the wisps of blue "force" are juxtaposed with black space. looks like pneumatic will be used to hold up 5 platforms or something...

Re: 2007 Serious FRC Game Hint

- it looks vaguely like a q-ball.
- I think that the whirls imply a spherical object
- maybe there are only going to be five pieces.

Re: 2007 Serious FRC Game Hint

The hint means there will be a game with robots on a field of some kind.

Re: 2007 Serious FRC Game Hint

I was thinking of a blue light that you can track with five manhole like items on the field that you lift in order to score a goal.

Re: 2007 Serious FRC Game Hint

Alrighty, here's my theory. The number 5 signifies that we will, once again, have five robots competing at once with one robot "guarding" or something. The diamond plate could either mean we will, as has been mentioned before, a circular arena, or a "king of the hill" sort of thing. It kind of looks like a manhole, but where's the fun in that? Unless, of course, there are scattered manholes to test your robots suspesion, or a raised manhole you somehow must get your grossly oversized robot on top of. or maybe its just another ramp.

Now for the background. It kind of looks like water, and my mom said that maybe there are out of bounds areas that either are or look like water. Or they could use water jugs . . .

The possibilities are endless!
