Re: Game Hint #1
I think that the many, small dots on the fish could represent many, small gamepieces. I think that one main advantage of the new control system, without the game being fully reliant on it, would be the camera's ability to give driver feedback on picking up very small objects.
I think that the "deep fork," and the tight crevices on the fish's fins may represent tight spaces that need to be manuvered through, possibly in a way that a normal chassis cannot handle. The latitude thing seems a bit to obscure, even for the GDC. |

Re: Game Hint #1
Here is something that I noticed:
The fish is pointing toward the left. The left signifies the Democratic Party. So when we get to the competition, all the good robots' mechanisms will be taken off and evenly distributed among all the robots without mechanisms. Only joking...I love these threads. ![]() |

This years kit of parts has a camera and the user station has the ability to attach a display for real time video. I think the game will require a gripper arm with camera to SCALE a wall and pick up 1 of FOUR COLOR Discs. Andy Mark is also now making larger wheels which would help cross a surface like the MOON(fish). |

Re: Game Hint #1
You all (well most of you) have a new control system to play with... Go learn the in's and out's of it... trust me learning the control system will help you a lot more come January 3rd then this 'hint' will. The control system is more fun and just as frustrating a use of your time... patience... we will all know the game soon enough.... breath ....

Re: Game Hint #1
I like the ideas that we have to morph or adapt the robot to ride the field...i mean moonfish=lunar like crater surface...and if the image does refer to lunar position, during this week it was supposed to align with venus and jupiter-again planet and space; GDC is ruining my sleep-but well worth it
Also, i think our robot needs to be agile like the fish to maneuver the field! FTC for now ![]() Edit: OPAH: Hydropower?-things relating to a water game need to stop Last edited by sayso_411 : 04-12-2008 at 22:40. |

Re: Game Hint #1
I have the feeling that analyzing the anagrams of Lampris Guttatus is probably going way overboard. Last year, they gave us a set of words that made an anagram, not a picture. This fish has a multitude of names, and we wouldn't know which one to use in an effort to figure it out.
I love the idea of a playing field like the moon...the only problem I can see with it is that it would be impossible for teams to practice in their own workspaces, unless FIRST decided to provide us with a replica of the playing field in our kits... Did anyone else notice this on Wikipedia? Quote:
