Re: Robot Casserole Team #1736 announces this year's Rules Challenge

I would recommend going through all the questions/answers again and checking them for spelling, typo's, and clarity. For example:
Quote:
Teams may bring a maximum of ____ panels of custom fabricated items.
Panels should be pounds, and for clarity you should state this is the WITHHOLDING ALLOWANCE. It wasn't until I read the possible answers did I realize what it was really asking.

Quote:
Any borrowed MINIBOT which scores points by legally triggering the TARGET during the MATCH receives ____ point(s).
What type of points? When reading it at first, I thought "It could be 30, 20, 15, or 10, depending on what place they get". Only after reading the possible answers did I realize you were referring to Coopertition points.

Quote:
The robot must be at least ____ in play
Apparently the answer is 62 inches... although I have no idea what the question is actually asking.

Making something like this is a great resource for teams... but it also has to be completely correct and understandable by everyone who reads it.
