Here's an event...

Keep your blocks out of my back yard!!

(this has been suggested by someone else but I kinda like it)
Have 2 different coloured blocks, black and white, distributed randomly in
the playing field.

The idea is to have your bot push one of the colours to the other half of
the field whilst getting the other colour to your side.

The idea is that this would keep the 'bot small (crowds love cute fast
moving 'bots)

This idea is better than just having the bot push any block to the other
side (prevents 'Daveism' 'bots with big 8 foot scoop pushing all blocks to
the other side)

The modifications (unfortunately) to the board is one half will need to be
painted a different colour so the 'bot knows where the other back yard is.

Scoring:

Subtract the number of wrong blocks from the number of right blocks in your
back yard.  Whoever has highest number wins.

So that's my idea.  Thrown out there for the masses to appreciate and
comment on.
