A Bridge will count as Balanced if it is within 5° of horizontal and all Robots touching it are fully supported by it.

You know what the problem with obvious is? When the rules say SUPPORTED by the bridge my first question should be "what is the bridge and where can I touch it so I'm supported yet out of the way". Nowhere does it say
on. If the GDC intended the word ON to be in there they should have put it in there. As it stood, the wording was ambiguous and their intent was not clearly articulated.
