Kickoff 2011

i am so excited for this. i am having a robotics kickoff party at my house…over 20 super nerds plus mentors watching on a 60 inch…then straight to the whiteboard for planning

It makes sense…the game pieces could be the FTC logo…it is the 20th anniversary!!!

Gaaa!! Blue square!

I just saw an inflated square…

Looks like the 2nd Game Hint wasn’t a joke haha

where are we supposed to get a square and triangle inner tubes?

A blue square tube!! We’re playing with the FIRST logo!!!

Blue Square! Idk, but maybe it’s just a coincidence. Maybe they’re just trying to psych us out…

wow, logomotion. It makes sense.

locomotion: hint #1

logo: hint #2

We will be moving these inflatable parts.

The 1997 game with tubes was called Toroid Terror.

Isn’t FLL and FTC fully automated? Is the game going to be fully automated?

Blue Square
Red Triangle
White Circle
‘Bonus Yellow Circle’???

They are all floating because it is a water game.

Game Pieces may come in the kit of parts. That does mean each team will be restricted to one practice game piece. I thought FIRST wanted to keep game pieces easily accessible to all teams, guess not.

Stacking game, points for how they are arranged?

Do we have to stack them?!?! Why did Dave pick up the triangle?!? OOHHHH THE SUSPENSE!!!

What is with the yellow ring? I get the other inflatables.

I was trying not to think of the water game joke, but he’s starting to stack the tubes… Hmm, maybe that’s it, we have to stack them? I don’t know.

Logomotion: stack logo pieces on top of each other.

Oh my gosh! He is stacking the tubes! Maybe he is just making the first logo.

Therefore, it is a water game.

ummm i think its going to be putting the pieces into a goal shaped like the logo…and its logomotion

Stacking tubes while floating on water? THAT’S IMPOSSIBLE!!!
