Re: 2015 HINT DISCUSSION

There is a single instance of the word "recycle" in the 2014 game manual.

This is in the permitted motors section. Maybe their's something to do with windows? ie. drivers don't get a window any more. That one guy on the phone that mentioned it may be on to something.

Discuss the Game Hint

What did you think?

What does throwing away the manual mean?

Not all years were in there...

Thoughts?

All the years were covered, just lag was bad enough that a few appeared to get skipped.

Re: 2015 HINT DISCUSSION

To further support the autonomous endgame theory, the recycling symbol could be a sign of that, i.e moving the phases from one part to the other in rotation.

It does look higher than normal.

You can also see a field marker reflected onto the wall behind the recycling bin. It looks as if the field may be split into 3 sections again.

It depends on what part of the field the video was filmed on. It does seem that parts of old games will be recycled. The triangle comments that have been made throughout may be referring back to the tetrahedrons that will be used again, along with possibly the lack of end game from last year

Re: Discuss the Game Hint

I made a list of all the games showed and what were said under the year and title. Over all these are all the ones that had some type of caption to the title.

1992 Maize Craze: Inavgural Competition
1993 Rub Rage: Robots increase in size and go wireless
1996 Hexagon Havoc: Robot weight increase
1999 Double Trouble: Robot Alliances begin
2001 Diabolical Dynamics: Robots race against clock
2003 Stack Attack: Autonamous mode introduced
2005 Trupple Play: 3v3 Introduced
2009 Lunacy Primary field surface isn't carpet for first time since 1992
2013 Ultimate Ascent : Frame perimeter changes

The pattern is the sizes of the robots and the alliances.
