Yup. UBERTUBE front or back, it counts.

What if the game piece is only partly in the lane, and the hostbot only contacts the piece outside of the lane? i know previously this would be allowed but your rationale seems to contradict this.

If the HOSTBOT contacts a GAME PIECE on the part that is outside the LANE, is the HOSTBOT in the LANE?

-You striked through G23, which now allows robots to camp at the tower spot (maybe theres still time to consider this rule being changed back?  )
However, the rule about the robot interfering with deployment still remains in effect. So lets say, opponent A is touching My teams tower. I go up to the tower, but instead of touching the tower, im up against the opponents robot that is touching the tower. Now, i have a super long deployment system, and despite me not touching the tower, i can still reach. So, i line up the deployer with the post, and i fire my minibot. Once my minibot has crossed the vertical projection of the base i am considered deploying, by definition. At that time, i am also in contact with the opponent's robot, thus interfering with my deployment, by rule <G24>. Will a penalty plus red card, as stated in <G24> be handed out for this situation?

<G61> would still apply; your robot with the super-long deployment device caused the contact so there would be no penalty or red card. This same rule change was used at MARC with no problems.
