we can all speculate...

As soon as the official hints come out, you will be tearing your mind and soul to little tiny pieces from both a) wondering what the hint means and b) wanting to use your 2010 bot to kick people who post on the 10th page of the hint thread saying "THE OPAH IS A MOON FISH OMG MOON"*





*I swear, I'm not attempting to offend anyone if they were one of those people. I did stop trying to read the thread at that point, though.

This will likely fall on deaf eyes but - something else that occurs is a level of frustration. It can produce insults, rudeness, and sometimes, a less than polite post both from the person who is frustrated and quarrelsome and from the member who is attempting to re-establish some order. Now is a good time to remember that the hints are a fun aspect of enjoying the anticipation of the game challenge reveal and they should be handled in ways that reflect thinking and humor as they introduce chaos.

Veterans, it is almost time to don those flame resistant knickers. Don't allow them to get in a twist.

This is going to be so.much.fun.

What? Thinking is required? I certainly hope not! If so, I'm toast!

Lol that's great Robert.


I like seeing the various guesses and people defending their points. The analzying of the words in the posts and the research into different things kind of set the mood for the season. It could give the rookies a taste of the spirit of FIRST and how we all become addicted to FIRST and love hint season I mean the Christmas season.

Good! I haven't let it slow me down in the past, either.
