Mark,
Do you think that FIRST will provide us with the key like they did for the 3rd clue or will we have to decrypt it ourselves?

They webcast the key at the close of the Kickoff show.

Re: **FIRST EMAIL**/FRC Game Hint #3

I just had a long idea written up on the other post, and when I went to submit it the post was closed. Basically I think the shapes of other game hints in order are square circle triangle, so I think it involves all those shapes. With this hint I think you may either need to shoot something over, a triangle tower, or place something on top of a triangle shaped stand.

Here we see a vet hurdling a FIRST tetra, kinda...



So Paul Copioli is the game piece for 2008. Expect a sample Copioli clone to be shipped with your Kit of Parts. Be careful - they bite!

I understand your frustration, but combining two threads into one will (help) prevent confusion and redundancy - I was going to do the same but Karthik got there first.

Can regular users combine threads? or do you have to be a moderator to do that?

Probably not, since the size of the field can't expand due to arena limitations. It could get a tiny bit bigger, but not enough to support 8 bots on one field. The traffic would be insane.
