**FIRST EMAIL**/Special Communication from the Game Design Committee
Greetings Teams:

The Game Design Committee is pleased to provide you with the following game clue:

five 'bots tangling with pasta
a game piece obsessed with a shovel's show
and seeing Montana's green heights

We wish you all a Happy Holiday Season and look forward to seeing you at Kickoff.

Go Teams!

From google.com - search term "define:shovel"

Quote:
A shovel is the machine that actually loads the logs onto logtrucks. It constructed of a cab that swivels, a boom much like a backhoe, with large jaw like grapples at the end. This structure allows the operator to select specific logs to be loaded.
Pick up sticks?

Thirty-nine times he passed for more than 300 yards in a game, including seven times in which he surpassed 400 yards. His six 300-yard passing performances in the post-season are an NFL record. He also owns the career playoff record for attempts, completions, touchdowns, and yards gained passing.
Green like a gridiron, heights as in passing. Maybe we're going to play pasta football.

Re: **FIRST EMAIL**/Special Communication from the Game Design Committee
Also I sure hope its not a 5v0 game hehe I seem to find those less competitive like the 4v0 of old. 1v1v1v1v1 would be kind of crazy. And Finals would be done almost all in one shot. and 5v5 would be mayhem, especially if they continued those somewhat bogus contact rules from last year. Hrmm this is an interesting clue.
