Re: Bumpers and Team Number

The manual is supposed to be simpler this year, yet this is a prime example of how vague rules overlap to derive obfuscated requirements.

Hey GDC, answer me this:
  • Why can't we simply not put numbers on bumpers so long as the numbers are clear and visible from 4 sides?
  • What specifically is so important to the GDC that the GDC mandate numbers go specifically on the bumpers?
  • Why not post a color template for all teams to print off and post on 4 sides?
  • What's going to happen when the team #'s hit 10,000? Are rookie teams really going have their designs that much more hindered compared to old veteran teams with only 3 digits or lots of 1's in their team number?
