Hello All;

Based on the Brunswick truck report, and a reliable report I
received that says we are going to be allowed bumpers that extend up to 6'
beyond the initial 30x36 box dimensions (but must be at least 6' off the
floor), allow me to provide a likely scenario...

3 on 3 'air hockey' with bowling balls as the scoring implement.

Meets all the criteria that Dean would want:

1. teaming
2. anyone can tell what/when a score occurs
3. robots can be either defensive (goalie) or offensive
4. easy field layout
5. takes advantage of the new control systems ability to handle
multiple units in close proximity

Well, what do y'all think?
