Re: 2012 Game Hint

I agree with pfreivald on this one, there is no way a lawyer would okay a game with water and i doubt many venues would allow FIRST to use pools in case of leaks.

Mulling could very well mean what it seems, they're thinking about it. And a water game? We can't use hydrauic fluid becuase of the potential mess, and we're going to have a water game? Where would they find a venue? 174 heads to the Finger Lakes regional every year, at RIT. The field we usually use does have a pool nearby. However, I don't think they'd loan it to us, if only to avoid worrying about wires in the pool once we leave. Save the wonderings for an actual hint, not just oddities of diction.

Re: 2012 Game Hint

This may be helpful, however...
it may be disleading
I agree with the idea that if this is a hint, there would be many obstacles.

Re: 2012 Game Hint

Earlier in the post he mentioned this:
Quote:
So enjoy the quiet before the storm. It will be raining soon enough.
maybe an extra reference with "Rain" ==> water??
Quote:
We’re gearing up for build season.
==> speedy drive train
Quote:
We have our eyes on the future.
==> a futuristic idea

also from some searches "Mull" can mean to crush or the verticle parts of a door frame, any ideas?

Re: 2012 Game Hint

I'm thinking mull as in mulligan. Either a do-over of a previous game or golf balls as the main playing piece.
