2006 game hints?

[EricH]

You mean nobody else has picked up on the hint about next year's game being called "Whack the Billfred"? Dave just gave it away in post #18 (after Billfred figured it out in the post just before)!

Pay it no mind. It's a hoax.

It may link to ifirobotics, but it's hosted at imageshack.com

FIRST wouldn't italicize FIRST on an image like that, anyway. And there's no reference to "Nautilus" nor "underwater" anywhere on the ifirobotics.com site.

Had me fooled for a second, though. I will give you that.

It was a meant to be funny April November Fool's Day joke. (If that holiday even exists... )

As for the source of the picture, I was bored in study hall in school yesterday while listening to the FIRSTcast episode where JVN was talking about "designing a waterproof speed controller", so I was inspired to make the picture. If there really was a waterproof speed controller, I don't think that it would have a fan on it. I thought the fan would give it away...

Oh well, everyone needs a good joke every so often.

Haha, why is there a blade missing on "waterproof fan"?

I guess Petey beat me to it, but you wouldn't believe how dumb I felt after looking through ifi for 2 or three minutes.
