2nd Most Awaited Q and A Answer?

Just wondering how may teams out there are awaiting a "helpful" reply to this question relating to the legality of (what many consider) one appendage that has two parallel arms attached mechanically and structurally so that they act as a singular appendage as they pivot to extend outside the robot...


Game - The Game » Robot Actions » G21
Q. If two members of a mechanism crosses one edge of a robot in two locations but the two members are connected via one axle and are controlled by one motor is this still considered one appendage?
Answer is in pending state

So do you go ahead and build this "appendage" knowing that sometime down the road you may or may not find out your time and effort was worth it?
