Re: 2007 Official FRC Game Hint / Email Blast

Admit it everyone, you too have either printed, set as background, or in another way shape or form have that clue still close to you. I for one have slept with it under my pillow, re-written to santa for another clue, and personally asked every person in the office what they thought.

Re: 2007 Official FRC Game Hint / Email Blast

not sure if neone said this, but i think there will now be a fifth member to the drive team; two drivers, a coach, and two human players. Or the fifth may do something else.

But im also trying to figure out the man whole cover, maybe it has something to do with the underwater clue, who knows. Im just not going to go crazy over this or else my brain will explode...........maybe it involves brains?

Re: 2007 Official FRC Game Hint / Email Blast

Playing of the Lenny Kravitz Idea, because in both those the 5's are nearly identical text and both wierdly placed. In that album apparently 5 restored his career with Fly Away which he won a grammy for.

In the 5th pros of the song it says:

" Let's go and see the stars
The milky way or even Mars
Where it could just be ours"

Who does this sound like to you?

We're using our robots to make diamond bathtubs using ceramic plates on top of flaming pentagrams while being fired at by lasers made from modified multi-colored goal lights from last year.


It's so obvious.

Re: 2007 Official FRC Game Hint / Email Blast

I think the game will involve moving boxes because there is a number 5 in the hint and there was five days left until Christmas and Christmas involves moving boxes (presents).

Re: 2007 Official FRC Game Hint / Email Blast

Has anyone tried to photoshop the photo and try to change the color of the back ground to deciefer if there is a picture in the back ground?

My guess is that there is something to do with 5 disc shaped objects, possibly a throwing contest of the discs, or maybe the robot is supposed to be shaped in a cylindrical shape.

OH I think that I may have a good idea of what it is. We will have to stack or roll 5 pieces of metal or some other material, to a certain place, such as a goal fo each disc or possibly each disc is worth so many points. Well that is all I can think of for now, so good luck to the rest of you.
