I like some of the other ideas about hooking up with other robots and stuff. But just for the heck of it what if those points make a picture, i know its only three points but, what if??? I'm going to use google earth to take a look. You just never know.

[Team #1502]

it might be a bit longer than expected for the diagram

Here's my 2 cents....

Take your machine out of the shop on Colorado in Paramount;
This first line means a starting area.

Stop by and get connected means Go to an area and connect to something. Goal or flatbead style platform.

Drive by and pick up means to load items for points

then head to the field on Evergreen in Dover. Parking area for bonus points.

The first clue means some type of hooking phase.

Maybe a return of mobile goals.... When was the last time we had mobile goals in FRC?

2003 was stack attack, as well as 2004 was first frenzy both featured mobile goals.

2004 unless you count the rack swaying as moving.

How did stack attack have moving goals? I don't see a goal, just a scoring area.

Technically the boxs were considered mobile goals thats what i read on the first archives that is just what they said.

I would not agree with that statement at all. I don't think anyone who played the 2003 game would actually.

However, as far as mobile goals are concerned though; 2004, 2002, 2001 & 1999 all had mobile entities (Re: scoring containers with wheels on them for the game objects). (Maybe other years earlier than that as well)

2001 (and maybe other year's, I'm not 100% positive) had a mobile "stretcher" as well, which acted as a replacement for an injured alliance partner who was non-operational at the time of the match.

Other teams were able to push those around with the bot on top of it, or empty if the team didn't show up I believe.

I know we handled & moved those in 2001 during the offseasons without a partner on them, so I may have an off-season ruling confused with a regular season one on that part. It may have just been put into play during the off-seasons because of a lack of 4 teams playing at the same time.

[fordchrist675]

Well thats just what I read on the site i don't agree with it either, i watched videos of the game. But you are right with the rest of the years

[manyquestions]

Going off xnaut's elements idea, perhaps they included all the elements, just so we would get the elements concept, but only one is actually useful. So, obviously, the game is played on planet Earth, there will be Air in the room, and Water in our bodies, but the real clue is that we finally get to add that flamethrower onto the robot! . . . or maybe I'm just dreaming. . . .

I'm going to put this here cause I rather not bump the Game Hint #3 prediction thread...

I predict that if we don't get a hint #3 tomorrow, we don't get another hint.

I disagree, I think there is a possibility of us getting an anagram of the encrypt password again, they just don't know what the password is. Maybe they will give us the real thing and we will anagram it without even trying it.

(or something like that???) well if this was stated and the picture of dover matches the clue given about a "FIELD" maybe were talkin a contact competition this year.....possibly even the rules and what is considered "being rough" in general.....cause i mean the picture IS a FOOTBALL field.........

You might be thinking of my signature. The quote is a common football/military one.
