One of the reasons why I wouldn't want to do 3T is primarily because we did a
similar mechanical game called ProjectX. We even needed higher resolution as we
demanded people to mesh the ends of studs into each other to score a point.
That and I think (and I'm talking out my rear here) the game is deterministic
based on who starts, right?
But Vitali is right--we do too "harvesting" games where you drive around. I was
thinking of maybe rope ladders or something. Maybe that marble balancing game
with (gasp) line following. Guess we'll discuss AFTER rtl20.
