Seriously, I don't see that anywhere. I've got Q's in to address whether a hoisted robot that's only ever touched Level 0 gets climb points, and whether driving on someone else's 2" tall ramp gets you 10 points.

A climb is negated if the robot don't touch the pyramid in sequential order.
Hoisting without sequential contact will not net any points... as soon as a robot goes above the first level the referee would push the button and the lights in the driver station would indicate a bad climb.
Good question about whether a robot that is above the floor and supported by another robot would get 10 points.
My guess is that the rule will change to read "fully supported by the pyramid" unless they want to move to more coopertition. In that case you could score two robots by simply having a piece of lexan flop down on either side of your robot that would fit a robot Would not even have to be 2" tall... any height above 0 would work.
