Re: The Ultimate Game-Breaker Robot: 2012 Edition

From the Q&A, it seems that the GDC has repeatedly addressed the definition of "the bridge" and has had multiple opportunities to define it so as to exclude the Lexan sheet, but they haven't. I think the fact that the robot wouldn't really be able to have an effective shooter would mean that a "trollbot" wouldn't be a really competitive strategy, and the GDC recognizes it. Personally, I have a hard time envisioning how a trollbot would be able to score balls effectively.
