No water game this year

Is it me or am I the only one who doesn't find humor in the water game posts anymore?

I think that there won't be water games for a while. People keep saying there can't be water robotics, we'd be electricuted, but that's not entirely true. The problem lies in saftey captains and paying attention to details/rules, specifically, if they forget to install a piece or decide to take a shortcut to save time. FIRST just isn't due for water games, maybe they never will. All that really matters is if the game will be fun and engaging for the students, mentors, [and yes] even the volunteers.

I don't find them funny either. I suggest that the next one million to propose such a thing be directed to a) the previous threads on the topic and b) the website for the underwater robotics competition (listed by blakcheez).

At first, "water game" was funny. Then it went to silly. Now it's just dumb. Not to mention unrealistic for FIRST.

wit ha water game, the entire border of the feild would have to be redesigned. The current field borders were designed to be used for many years to save teh costs it takes to have a ton of them built and shipped out.

soo... water game = HIGHLY unlikely.. for now. in future years things may change, and when a whole new generation is leading and we are nothing but mentors, THEN the water game we all have hoped for will come along
