Re: 2011 FRC Game Hint #2

Has no one else noticed that these shapes are ripped straight from the 20th logo and don't look like the normal FIRST logo? Seriously, I looked through the thread and couldn't find that.

I laughed when this hint come out at just how little it tells you.

With talk of another alliance, I can't help but think about "House robots":

Re: 2011 FRC Game Hint #2

I thought of an interesting idea, combining the idea of Cooperation and balance, what if the alliance each of two goals. Both goals count the same to that alliances score, but if 1 red and 1 blue goal have equal points in them there is a large multiplier on those goals.

Re: 2011 FRC Game Hint #2

I think this might be significant...and I've read the thread and haven't seen it.

Why is the text that is normally right below the logo missing? No FTC. No FLL. No FRC. No FIRST. Normally, that's right below the shapes. Very few times is it missing (typically when there isn't space for it, like on a Firefox tab).

From KarenH: the game name might have the word "FIRST" in it.

The last time that happened, to my knowledge, was 2004, FIRST Frenzy: Raising the Bar. I wonder if they've diabolically twisted that game...

Oh, and I like the cone idea. It's been suggested quite a bit lately...

each robot will be pulling a trailer that is the goal for the opposing alliance. One trailer for circles, one for squares, one for rectangles.

Noooooo! Pleeeeaaassssseeee! No trailers! Oh, I hope not! Especially on carpet! No backing up without jackknifing! At least not without a lot of practice!

BAM

The logo was created from proof of the Archenemies Principal. (I think I got this right) The volume of a cylinder is the same as a Sphere and Cone of the same height and width.

The Logo without FIRST below it is 315X223, if you subtract this to numbers you get 92. Being that the first FIRST game was in 1992, reinventing the first game with more difficulty. And possible the FIRST could be in the name of the game, FIRST Loco-Motion.

Logo Motion.

(Name inspired by this post.) Even if it is wrong, I am so singing this all season. Come on baby, do the logo motion. It rocks!

A small group of us have been cleaning the shop in time for kick-off. Today I went home to get my little sis off the bus.Checked CD, saw the hint, thought the same things as everyone else. I went back to school to the shop and told everyone about it.

They would not believe me! Only until I showed them did they believe me!

I was thinking something 3d. Not only are red and blue 3d related, but the image itself is made to look like the three shapes are 3d. Could someone check the colors of standard red/blue 3d glasses and the colors in this image? After all, the color index only carries 4 colors in it in this. Plus, the last hint was produced by 'dimension' records. It took this image i made to make me think of it.
