If it is a hint, be prepared to change all your code from Integers to Longs

Re: 9328490238209

Tried multiplying it by 57 (57 second runtime), and got this number:
531723943577913. From what I can tell so far, neither number has any real significance, although I'm still going to try and pry meaning out of it.

EDIT: The tweet did say "rewatch," so we may be working with 9328490238210

I believe this wording was used since we all watched it upon the original release.

Re: 9328490238209

I'm just gonna say it plain and simple. It isn't a game hint. And even if it is, we have 7 days until kickoff. Don't worry guys, your FRC hiatus will be over soon.

Re: 9328490238209

Oh, I think it's probably a clue. In the same way that "moonfish" was a clue for Lunacy. Useless, a waste of time, gives away nothing, sends you down a rabbit hole. Still, seems like the kind of clue we've gotten in the past. And I agree that we should just wait to see in a week.

What if its the exact number of molecule allowed on any one robot? No more, no less.
