Interesting game, building the elements now! No water for all you believers!

Do the game rules say anything about releasing the code before kickoff? (or are you just trollin...)

Seems legit.

Confirmed only one game hint this year.

"And you will have everything you need for the 2012 FRC Kickoff"

A link to the first game hint is posted in the pdf. It's a little late for game hints, but yeah. that's about it.

You don't need a hint, so that's just a question of semantics.

And they label it hint #1, which implies a hint # 2, does it not?

QED.

nope. not at all.

it is like the classic scheme of letting 3 animals tagged #1, #3, and #4 loose in a town and then everybody spends the rest of the day looking for the non-existent #2.

so no, being labeled #1 doesn't necessarily imply other hints to come.

as for flash, I wonder if maybe animations this year may be submitted as a flash movie?

Wait a minute.. Flash.. The amazing number of LED lights from the first hint.. It's not a water game.. It's a flying game. The flashes are from runway lights we have to land between

Or relate to something about lights. Different lighting, more lighting, turning lights on/off, there's a ton of possibilities, and we won't know for sure until kickoff, or until they release another game hint, and we all unanimously agree on something, and then show up to kickoff to find something completely different. Either way, we'll find out in less than 3 days.

Just kidding. Every year someone asks if the encryption key is out.
