Re: Regarding the lifting of other robots
What is the delineation between the robot that's already climbed (i.e. the lifting robot) and the robot being lifted? So if you are going to lift another robot, does your lifting mechanism for the other robot count towards the climbing rules for your robot or the robot being lifted? For example, if robot #1 is hanging from from level 2 and grabs robot #2 from the floor and lifts it up 1 inch while robot 1's "lifting mechanism" touches the 1st rung of the pyramid for robot 2: would that be legal?
