Re: 2011 Game Hint #1

I'm guessing some one of the elements of the game is a train. Maybe the robots have to get off and on it. The mirror image may mean something too.

Maybe instead of the robots going on the train, the you score the elements into a train that moves around a track navigating though the field.

Re: 2011 Game Hint #1

At the beginning of the thread, someone mentioned the photo looks like a yearbook photo, because of the ring. My guess is that the game is alumni of FIRST focused, or at least Dean will focus on FIRST alumni again. Possible the game will incorporate older elements of previous games?

I find that very interesting.....

We all have said in the past that football would be a good way to go, it's not a sphere, and it sticks with the whole making this a sport, and could be another spectator friendly sport..

I don't think we should speculate too much on the red herrings, due to the fact that the second was just a google image search of "red herring".

Re: 2011 Game Hint #1

When you Google Image search "Little Eva", the fourth result is the picture they probably used. It has text that they cropped out and this cropping explains the half-uncovered watch. (it does line up exactly i tried).
So the watch clue is pointless and they most probably just did a search for her, not a column AND her (that search does not turn up this picture on the first page at least)

And even if we only know the game name (if they would actually release it this way), that is a clue in itself. Imagine the conversations that would be taking place if the game hint was:
Game Name: Locomotion

Locomotion would have been an easy way to get TO a search for her. If you try "locomotion" on wikipedia, she is on there, but towards the bottom. If I were trying to make a clue for "Locomotion, I think this is just far enough away to work.


So, I would disregard the column and pay attention to the song name because it has something more to do with robots. I like the column-shaped game piece idea but I don't think they would have gotten to this picture if they intended that as the hint.
