if a team is violating the design rules, you CAN formally complain to the FIRST people (the head judge) and they will inspect the robot again.

If a team wins a match with a machine that violates the rules, then they can be disqualified AFTER that match is over.

as for tipping and lifting - its very difficult to determine if a bot is designed to push containers by lifting one edge, or to tip robots over.

if a robot is tipped over while engaged in a shoving match, that doesnt mean the other robot was designed to tip robots over.

If your robot is tipped over frequently, you have C.G. issues :c)
