Blog post are not the rules (As Frank (not me the other Frank)) has said.
The rule says
Quote:
G23-1
A) While in contact with the PYRAMID, a ROBOT may not have its horizontal dimensions exceed a 54 in. diameter vertical cylinder relative to the ROBOT and
B) may not extend any part of itself beyond a vertical plane defined by a perimeter offset from the base of the PYRAMID by 54 in., see Figure 3-5b and Figure 3-5c.

I would read that the cylinder stays normal to the robot along with horizontal & vertical dimensions. Fig 3-5c shows the cylinder rotating with robot. The Q&A clearly gives a different interpretation. The judges at Waterloo obviously went the Q&A answer. I am good with that I just wanted other peoples opinion.
