Re: Patiently waiting for hint #2

OK, just so there's no loss of productivity in school this week, let's tell FIRST not to post the hint until Friday afternoon.

Re: Patiently waiting for hint #2

School will take a day or two to get back into. A game hint now would give all of the robotics kids something to talk about Monday and Tuesday.

I think either way my mind is going to wander, its just a question of if its thinking about when the next hint will be released, or what the next hint means.

I agree. For Hint 1, all my other teammates who take physics with our mentor found out an hour later, I meanwhile didn't know till 2:00.

Re: Patiently waiting for hint #2

Yeah I agree with the people who said there might not even be another hint.

Maybe since the whole locomotion concept could be a major part of the game they decided to release another clue.

Oh well...only six days until Kickoff!

Re: Patiently waiting for hint #2

What are the odds that they decided to cancel hint #2 because the CD forums did a too good job with the first clue? ^^

Re: Patiently waiting for hint #2

If you hover your mouse over the link to the hints here:

http://usfirst.org/roboticsprograms/...nt.aspx?id=452

It says "2011 Game Hints"

That's plural!

interesting... the link says hint but the mouse over says hints. it could mean either there is going to be more then one hint or it could be a spelling error. I just really hope its the 1st one.
