Re: [BB] 2010 Game Hint #1
Or the usual - the GDC just wants to screw with our minds by giving us a clue that hardly relates to what the game will be this year. -nods-

Re: [BB] 2010 Game Hint #1
well we probably might not use it, it could be use for some thing else and what ever is use for is related to the game, no ?

Re: [BB] 2010 Game Hint #1
hmm, i looked over the image a bit. i came up with two conclusions.
1. it could potentially be part of the field as a track. 2. it could be an elevator of sorts. a lot of people have elaborated on the first one. however, the second one, someone mentioned stacking on top of the Lexan. what i believe is that it is something similar to 2008, where you had to push a ball over a bar. however, if thinking that you're gonna be lifting something over a variable height plate or elevator. i could be wrong. |

Re: [BB] 2010 Game Hint #1
Well I've been literally staring at the picture some some amount of time now and I'm not to sure myself what it is. Granted we may very well be over looking something or not quite getting the hint it's suppose to provide. Seeing as how last years was a 'moon' fish and all we would've got from that was it had something to do with the moon.
What I've got so far from looking at this is several things in fact. I've been looking at each piece and the thing as a whole. The two bars seem to be extend-able which suggests we may be dealing with changes in high in the competition, along with the fact that all the parts would appear to be made of light weight materials, may be unrelated to the actual competition but it may suggest a weight limit again. Extend-able building? But they seemed to put effort into demonstrating to us that two parts are made out of metal and one part out of a yellow(?) plastic. Upon looking closer at the hint I noticed that the the plastic has holes in all sides of it to be attached to something else, maybe more of the rods? But as people said prior it may very well be part of the arena. Though I just can't seem to figure out why the plastic is such an odd shape. Though for some reason....when I keep looking at the parts it reminds me of some stripped down speed boat...my crazy idea is the competition being water based. |

Akash's joke was a lot funnier if you were up in the middle of the night when he posted it.

Re: [BB] 2010 Game Hint #1
Now that I think about it, the whole fact that it's an odd sort of shape with various parts sticking out reminds me of The Spider from the 2006 game Rack N' Roll. Perhaps it's just like that and it's a segment of a moving goal?

Re: [BB] 2010 Game Hint #1
The 2 holes in the outer plastic tab make it impossible to swivle which would mean it mounts to something most likely vertically. Also the picture has multiple reflections meaning that it probably has many of those pieces. The most dominant reflection is the one that is inverted, which most likely represents how the piece will actually be. I personally believe it is an immovable game piece and is most likely a ramp for balls to roll on. The reflections are as follows; one at an angle, one to the far side, and one below. So possibly side-by-side and at angles. The reflections could also mean that there are multiple lights or light sensoring devices. Also the spring locks are very common for attaching tubes together just for those that don't know what the tabs were.
Just an idea. P.S. I realize this idea has already been said, just elaborating and giving reasons as to why. ![]() Last edited by CTG9210 : 03-01-2010 at 22:28. |

Re: [BB] 2010 Game Hint #1
Maybe this hint is related to CAD, or reflection.

Re: [BB] 2010 Game Hint #1
Could be a track, or...
We have to attach the yellow parts to "legs" of our robots and we have to make walking ice skating robots. Seems manageable. ... Seriously, I'll go with either A. Bracket, B. Holder/track/etc. C. We're trying too hard and going on the wrong track and it's something much simpler and half of us will feel like fools when the game is finally revealed next Saturday. Hmm, I'll go with B for now. |

Re: [BB] 2010 Game Hint #1
Did anyone read the decryption test?
It says "Congratulations! You have successfully decrypted the test file! Below is the 2010 FRC Game Hint:..." Note the "Game Hint" and not "first Game Hint" or "Game Hint 1", implying this will be the only game hint. |
