Re: IRI Rule Changes - 2012
I too am opposed to this change. The Rules Update section of the IRI website states they would consider "minor rule changes...but not make a change that will encourage teams to alter their robot", then turn around and do the exact opposite?!?

I understand there will always be rule changes at IRI, but it looks like teams with long-bots are being "encouraged" to take a look at robot modifications instead of running what got us invited to IRI in the first place.
