Bad idea. All the game pieces would be gone before the first practice match.

Re: Next year's game?

Practice match? We'd never get that far. The GDC wouldn't be able to complete their testing of the field elements.

Did you mean "testing" or "tasting"?

Re: Next year's game?

Here's a pic of what my game idea, game field would look like.
Key:
Black = boundaries
Blue = lines
Green = ball
Brown = ladder setups
Orange = box
Red = start positions
So the game would basically be around the same dimensions as this year, there would be six wall like things but instead of glass it would have horizontal bars going across from post to post. The teams would have to get horse shoes, or something similar and place the horse shoes on the horizontal bars, the higher up the more points, then as a second strategy the teams could defend by taking the horse shoes off (BTW there are two different colored horse shoes to tell form alliances) Then a third strategy to this game would be the lines where the robot would have to weave in and out of the lines, and for every other line it crossed it would et like 2 points, then the bonus for the extra 12 points would be to go to the center of the ring and get the ONE ball and bring it over to there alliance station wall and put it in the box (with no lid, and is wide enough so it is possible for the opposing team to get the ball out of the box) For autonomous each line crossed would be 4 points, and for each horse shoe it would be determined by the height at which it was placed.

Re: Next year's game?

That clown sends shivers down my spine. Not nice! lol
And I am not even THAT afraid of clowns.
And I think Libby is right Dave - you really shouldn't post pictures of yourself like that... the ones you already post are scary enough!

I got it! Edible Rack 'n Roll! With freshly glazed Krispy Kreme ringers (so... good...) and a rack made of candy canes and chocolate! Yum!

I know that was last year's game, but the donuts...
