Re: **FIRST EMAIL**/FRC Game Hint #2
Could you imagine, as loud as those arenas get?
As far as all the water talk...It would be VERY impractical, esp. since some venues (like Detroit) are on a gym floor...but then again, most people never thought we'd see projectiles in a game (a la 'Aim High') PS: Played "Rock Band" for the first time tonight. -=<*AWESOME GAME!!!*>=- At 32 years old, I was the youngest one there! Now my voice is strained, my fingers are blistered, and my right thigh is killing me (bass drum pedal). To top it off, I'm jut getting home at 3am. Looks like I'm ready for build season. ![]() |

Re: **FIRST EMAIL**/FRC Game Hint #2
x^2+y^2=c^2
i tried that with the numbers, but concluded the third number does not equal c. however, when i divided c^2 by the third number, i got 20.00140819777115566748076695876 can this be in any way significant? well that equation is a cartesian equation, used in cylindrical coordinates. so maybe the game involves cylindrical objects with a diameter of 20 centimeters or something. |

Re: **FIRST EMAIL**/FRC Game Hint #2
Well I have my own speculation.
Maybe that is the method for calculating the score. Last year it was 2^N . This year it might be x^2 + y^2 = c^2. Makes sense, doesn't it ? ![]() |

EDIT: Interesting idea though about the theorem if someone can build on it. Last edited by Akash Rastogi : 29-12-2007 at 18:03. |

. It's just that we beat the GPS coords to death, without conclusion, and haven't yet even started to explore that the numbers may relate to Pythagorean theorem.Just out of curiosity ... what sort of structure could be built out of a triangle (or triangles) with those dimensions? In any case, lets keep having fun guessing ... and we'll all find out if anyone guessed it correctly on Jan 5. |

42+71<342 If you have a triangle, the two shortest sides added together need to be longer than the longest side. This doesn't fit the bill. |

Re: **FIRST EMAIL**/FRC Game Hint #2
I'm sticking with the GPS idea. The odds that those coordinates point to an area on land, in america, in a major city, in a popular area tells me that these coordinates weren't exactly random and that they are indeed to be read as GPS coordinates.
Now I need to start figuring out the significance of the globe cafe and the oblesiks. My guess is some sort "Fortwars" type of game. If you are unfamiliar with Fortwars, it is an addon to HalfLife 2. The point of the game is to get a ball and retain possession of the ball for a prolonged period of time. I'm sure there is a better comparison than that. What if the clue has something to do with Globe Motors? Does Globe make any other motors? |

Re: **FIRST EMAIL**/FRC Game Hint #2
Don't know if this has been brought up before but I find it hard to believe that these numbers have anything to do with a measurement. The reason being they have 6 decimal places. I don't know of any tools that measure to six decimal places.
