Re: [BB] The FRC staff doesn’t know it yet, but we’re having Haagen-Dazs at 2

I got home and jumped on my pc and hit refresh on bills blog and saw "Haagen-Dazs" and fell out of my chair, for I knew the game hint was on its way.

I'll never look at that brand name again honestly xD

Nah! Dave lives for our guessing! Why else throw out the red herrings? Certainly not to attract sea gulls! (At least I don't think so, but with Dave...)

I still like the idea of having to climb steps.

That's just the sexy dance move they all do at HQ. They probably salsa up and down the stairs, daily.

I have a feeling it's going to be stairs.

Plus while perhaps it was an easy location to take the picture in his post on 11/17, the FRC staff on the staircase was the first thing that came to mind.

I think the title says it all. "....we’re having Haagen-Dazs"

I love their little cone cups. What a game piece they would make!

One of my teammates had a good thought, maybe we have to stand things up...like cones!?! I'm no expert but it would be a fair challenge to try to pick up a cone and manipulate it into an upright position.
Just a thought(:

It doesn't seem likely stairs would be for anything but an equivalent of the hang-bar from other years score/accessibility wise.

I've been lurking the hint threads since my school had its first robotics meeting (Knowledge is power, and this place has a lot of it. So I came here) and it's maddening.

Re: [BB] The FRC staff doesn’t know it yet, but we’re having Haagen-Dazs at 2

Does anyone else think that the vote of favorite FIRST game of all time is a little skewed.

Can we really reach a consensus when 95% (estimate) of the people who are voting have not seen more than 4 years of FRC?

Hence how the oldest game voted for is from '06...

Re: [BB] The FRC staff doesn’t know it yet, but we’re having Haagen-Dazs at 2

I think this is another way to reach the alumni from the teams. They are also gauging that impact, etc.

It's all about reaching the alumni, I think.

Power building power disguised as a game. If you don't play by voting, you help to skew the numbers.
