Re: 54 in cylinder

For those unsure, ask in the Q&A. Personally, I believe the rule is very clear:

A ROBOT’S horizontal dimensions may never exceed a 54 in. diameter vertical cylinder.
You can't lawyer the word "horizontal" or "vertical". My dictionary defines both as being in relationship to the ground.

Horizontal: "at right angles to the vertical; parallel to level ground."
Vertical: "being in a position or direction perpendicular to the plane of the horizon; upright; plumb."
