As it is now, there is absolutely nothing (except y'know, morals) to stop a team from working on their robot right up until their competition, and bag the robot the night before, having a mentor sign the paper saying it was in on bag day.
You mean you think there are people in this world that would cheat? Shocking! Next you will be telling me that there are athletes out there using performance enhancing drugs, then lying about it. I just can't believe that would ever happen!
