You are a funny guy.... most doors are bigger than 28"

how will the doorway check the 42" spec?

I know you thought were making a joke... but I would be surprised if there were not something to judge this... Remember we have not used a sizing box for the past two years.... wondering if it is coming back.

I thought they might have one of those little sizing things like they have at the airport for take on luggage right next to the field....


The question is actually more about how this would be penalized... I see no provision in the rules for a penalty after the match.... perhaps before but not after....

There will be teams that leave the field without folding up their robot .... is it going to make a difference?
