Thumbs down Re: Angled Bumpers

As a general rule of thumb, I'd like to summarize a few points.

If you place your robot in the smallest box possible that it can fit in, and the box has NO concave faces, that box is your frame perimeter. Your bumpers MUST be around that box (the frame perimeter), NOT your robot frame. This is explicitly defined in the game manual and has been a rule for as long as I can remember. do NOT have any concave bumpers, as you will not pass inspection and will need to do major modifications to pass.
