This is my mini field right now, I am missing one autoload station and both player stations, which will be covered with printer paper.

Re: pic: Mini Field...great demo idea
The pyramids on the left far side are autoloaders, I plan on making around 20 normal tetras so I can make this like a board game. 
If you want my rules for let me know.
Questions?

Re: pic: Mini Field...great demo idea
here... for the zipzaps idea... make the goals bigger... put little 3 sidded box things on them so that when they drive and stop fast in front of a goal *or hit one* the ball falls INTO the goal... and teams w/ the most marbles in that goal owns it... but you would have to make the goals bigger and the field a lil bit bigger but still sounds like fun

Mini Triple Play, now you can play any time, any where! Challenge your friends and impress future sponsors!
Looks cool. I started to make a mini field as soon as I learned about the game, but once we got into building I kinda gave up (and I didn't have any time any more). Some Hot Wheels might work, all you have to do is make a few mini speed controllers, motors, and robot controller and its good to go.

Re: pic: Mini Field...great demo idea
UPDATE:
I have the goals made, autoloaders made...and 7 tetras done so far tonight...my goal is for 10 maybe 14 tetras.
Rules of "Mini Triple Play, The home edition"
2-6 players on 2 teams. (green and red)
Roll dice to see which number goal u will get. (2 die used, if bigger then 9 roll again until 2-9 comes up, each team owns their #1 goal. numbers ar done from left to right for each side.)
Each team gets 5-10 tetras, depending on how many are available. They get that amount of rolls.
Most rows win.
