2011 FRC Game Hint #2

[dodar]

I do like the idea but what would be a fun/interesting/thrilling end game on that field? Also, would there be any stairs or just the goals floors raised up.

The first game hint was the album cover for an album by Little Eva. The FIRST logo could just be referencing the first track on the album, seeing as the company name has been removed from the picture. If this were true, then the first track on the album is The Locomotion. So are we possibly gonna have to pull a series of carts or maybe even go on a track of some sort?

I think this years game is going to be a game with columns that correspond with the shapes of the FIRST logo, and game pieces that have to be places around them. How it would be set up and all I don't know, but the column idea can have targets and there for camera use. Just what I thought of.

Ok, there should be a kind of thread lock so that to see the next post, you have to spend atleast 5 seconds on the previous post. People, Im begging you, READ THE PREVIOUS POST BEFORE YOU POST!

Someone mention that early in the thread, but is a good game idea.

I also just found on a thread that the codename for the 2011 game is supposedly "Kokomotion" which I guess could relate back to "Locomotion".

What did KokoEd tell Dave Lavery?

[279 EMPIE]

just found that there is a Koko Taylor
Koko is a singer so the 1st hint would be the music thing or something
IDK maybe something to do with it

One thing that I have noticed in game hint #1 is that " Little Eva" 's picture is mirrored to the album version of the same picture...
-Little Eva-

I don't know what this means however...

[SoftroniX]

that may be so that we couldn't just pop the picture into TinEye and do a reverse search. I flipped the image before doing the search though which is how I got results. It was really just a lucky guess.

Each team on an alliance will get a shape, either a triangle, a square, or a circle. For example {{red alliance: square}} might be your allocated slot for the match. The goal will be to compete directly against the other teams robot(for example, {{blue alliance: square}}) while also helping out your teammates. You will score by getting your square-shaped pieces into some sort of goal on the other teams side. Pillars are in the middle of the field because this idea was running dry and i had to put pillars in somewhere.
