i’ve been wondering what the curves around the platform mean
any ideas?
[note: i’ve highlighted them in this picture, i did not simply edit to get this image]
Circles in the background might be… springs? =)
My theory is that the blueish “waves” coming out from the disc are the curve of a blue inner tube, which is what I think that game object will be.
Or could it be a Hula Hoop like discussed last year 
If you look at the picture without anything done to it though, it looks like the “manhole” was bouncing up and down and creating waves like if it were floating in a pool.
tube or tire is best guess so far.
Well just going with the bananas. What if we have to pick bananas out of a tree that is 5’ tall
u know w/o any editing u can c a head from an animation
I’m guessing that the challenge requires robots to move around very heavy manholes worth 5 points each. Simple enough!
I’ve been trying to reverse the reflection back off the innertube, but POV-Ray is not the easiest thing to debug.
some one played with the color and got a banana out of the bottom right corner, it was clear as day, it looked like a banana. if you play with the color some more you see on the right side what looks like a pic of a human player standing outside the field…
Sanddrag admitted that the banana was fake, he added it himself.

This might be an interesting game. But I think the meaning is a little deeper than that.
In past years you had to think out side the box, Maybe that’s true this year too.
