Re: Non-level bumpers

In the Q&A I asked
Q. As Per rule G27 robots can not use a wedge mechanism in order to flip other robots, but can we put our bumpers on an angle in order to help aid the ball in rolling into our chassis?

A. BUMPERS must be backed by the FRAME PERIMETER and may not go inside the FRAME PERIMETER (see Figure 4-5). Please see the Blue Box on R2 for help determining the FRAME PERIMETER of the ROBOT.

and with the response it seems to sound like they dont approve of it but they dont say no to it but i could be wrong.
