Game Hint #2

[Grant Cox]

I told myself I'd stay out of the obsession this year, but I couldn't resist...

A route connecting the four streets. Note that there are actually two Evergreen Drives in Dover, OH and Dover, DE, but they both satisfy my theory more or less. All four locations go from left to right, with the first two and the last two being at about the same "elevation" (the first two are more south, the last two more north). 4 stages? Second two higher up or something? Check out the link and you'll see what I mean.

Also, I think this confirms the idea that the game will involve some sort of a handoff or giving of the game piece to other bots. The Opah being a prizefish which is often given as a gift, then this:

Taking out of the shop = coming out of the home zone
Get connected = meet up with other bots
Make a pickup = handoff
Head to the field = go play the game

Granted this could also be interpreted to several of the other games (05-07 off the top of my head), where the human player has given the game piece to their bots. But the possibilities are there.

I agree with GeeForce, i think he's done his research. also upon looking at the map he posted, there are four evergreens, so i was thinking that there might be four goals or in-zones where you have to score, but also that you'll have to work with other teams before you can get there. this was just one of my thoughts and i'd like to hear what you have to think.
