Yeah, good call. Maybe people will stop thinking water game. FIRST robots and water... that doesn't sound like the safest idea. But i think it would suggest an unnatural environment for a robot, driver, human player, etc. Can someone say OBSTACLE COURSE!! That would be awesome.

This much makes sense, because if you look at the games, there is usually something in common between one season and the next.
Stack Attack-had ramps
Aim High- hand ramps, and balls which had to go up high
The Next Game (forgot the name of it)- had to put stuff up high again, and bonus points for being elevated at the end
Overdrive- had balls again, and they were up high
So, I'm thinking that 2009 will have to do with something being up high again, and the obstacle course sounds about right, and possibly a circular portion of the playing field?

Okay... but how would the fish come into play?
