Update [9 / 03 / 06]
This year's game has finally been announced! This year, we will have to build a robot that moves again, I have been waiting for this since freshman year! First, we will need to pass through a door, which serves the same purpose as the switch in previous games. Then, we must either take dry laundry from the clothes lines and put it in our basket, or take wet laundry, hanging from the robot, and put it on the clothes lines to score. There is a gazebo in the middle of the field that you can enter, that is if you can pass over a board about 1/2 to 1 inch high. Once in the gazebo, you can hang clothes there which awards more points, or take clothes off and put them in your basket. There is also a red piece of laundry which is about 25 points, I believe. If you score by taking clothes off and putting clothes on the line, you are awarded bonus points. It seems kind-of complicated, but it is going to be A LOT of fun!

Here are some pics we took during Kick-Off:

Previous Entry
This year's game remains a complete mystery until the Kick Off, but so far all we know is that it is going to be called Laundry Quandry. I am very curious to see what this game is going to turn out to be; I hope they don't want us to use robots to do their laundry! That would be quite rediculous and very lazy of the BEST staff; how dare they force us to wash their clothes! Okay, I'm getting ahead of myself, we will have to wait and see until later on. However, they have posted a video hinting at what is going on this year around; here is the video which is about 18 MB: 2006 BEST Teaser.

When we know more, we'll update ya.
