Game Hint

FIRST General Forum

Hello chief Delphi! I have been looking around lately and haven’t found much about a game hint other than the stronghold video. Have any of you guys found another hint or have anything to say about the video?

Thanks,
Drew

Any game hints will be specifically stated as so on the official FRC Blog.

good timing!

Great, now Chief will be full of people meticulously looking through that video for a hint :rolleyes:

5

If it was actually filmed at the field, the angle of the video camera indicates that there are elements of the field at eye level.

6

…

Note: This video contains no game hints

If there’s a way to get the community to collectively pour over every word in the Admin Manual, that’s it.

Clever move, Frank, clever move…

Here’s the real hint:

Also, the rumor that the recently released 2016 FIRST Robotics Competition Administrative Manual contains a hidden game hint is a total fabrication. - See more at: http://www.firstinspires.org/robotics/frc/blog/Security-Breach-at-Kickoff-Filming#sthash.U837NhY1.dpuf

Something is fabricated - but it doesn’t say whether it’s the rumor or the hint that is a fabrication, nor by whom it was fabricated. (That is, if the GDC fabricated a hint and hid it in the Admin manual, this statement would be completely true.)

Edit: And OBTW, we’ve already gotten more this year from the “teaser” than we ever got from the “hint”. The last I-don’t-know-how-many hints have just been riddles to part of the name of the game.

The title of the short clip was call security breach and with the teaser trailer being a medieval theme .Possibly based on the hint from the admin manual was “Fabrication” so their referencing the field walls of the playing field

10

Maybe the Admin Manual is a total fabrication.

11

We must fabricate a fortress out of Admin manuals.

12

Appropriate after Recycle Rush!

13

Look at the banner guy walk by and the light that he fixates on, and the sound of charging army in the background. This is a great addition to FRC’s new branding campaign for the game this year!

14

So, the robot fabrication rules must be changing?

15

Wait. Fabrication. Shorten to Fabric (you know Frank and puns). Fabric robots!?! it’s the dreaded “Sewing game”

16

Denim Derby???

17

So i am the only one who saw the Flag on the clip ?
0:05 to 0:08 very clearly

Capture the Flag at HIGH chance

18

That’s called a “standard” its a branded team banner that we make. It then hangs above the alliance station during Matches.

19

If you look closely at the reflection in his eyes you can clearly see the field and all of its elements. These new high-def cameras are something these days.

obviously angles camera up at basketball hoop

shooting game confirmed
