Re: Interest in Trivial FIRST?
I would buy it, but I'd honestly only be able to play with it once. I know 2 people in person with adequate FIRST knowledge to play with me...

It's a shame Trivial Pursuit is not Monopoly because I would pay a significant amount of money for pewter models of robots (1114 2008, Wildstang 2003, 1625 2009, etc.)

Hey I have a new fundraiser idea! "Toy car" versions of robots and replica fields!

That's not a half-bad idea!

Re: Interest in Trivial FIRST?
I would seriously play Pretend Overdrive for hours with my friends. Have an 1114 robot with a rubber band loaded shooter throwing a ball over, or a "clicky arm" for 217's grabber, or maybe one of those drive-backwards-wind-up mechanisms for robots that fire like 16's... I'm drooling already.

Anyone wanna figure out exactly how to do this?
