Re: 2008 Robot Game

Does anyone know when the offical game hint for FRC comes out? I know that it traditionally comes out around Christmas but I wondered if anyone know the exact date.

Re: 2008 Robot Game

As far as I know, they have never announced the hint date in the past, to keep us on our toes.

Usually somewhere between Christmas and New Year's. Last year, it was a day or two (or maybe more) early, but there are no guarantees that that will happen this year, especially since the game was figured out before kickoff (even though nobody knew for sure).

I could see them telling us when they would release the hint, and then releasing it a week early

That could result in a mass rebellion which would include such rebellious acts as:
  • angry CD posts
  • an international mob outside Dave's house armed with torches, pitchforks, and random shop tools
  • robots programed to follow Dave around haunting him (using his Hawian shirts instead of the green light)
  • and the blowing up of Dave's secret moon-sized KK factory
