The ramp in Manchester was THE SAME as the one in Houston.
This metal strip was not a new change. They have been like this since the very beggining.

I was a ref in NH, and saw your robot, and saw it on the ramp doing it's thing. The ruling has ALWAYS been that if a robot touches the metal edge protruding above the HDPE, it is not "on".

That was how we called it week 1 in NH, that is how they called it week 6 in Houston.
