Re: "Spare Parts" Rules Are Broken
Disassembled means disassembled. Any spare assemblies we brought to competitions were packed in our crate at ship time and then shipped in the robot crate to the next regional. If we brought any other parts to the competition, they were all in disassembled state. Some parts were 2-3 pieces welded together, but that was as disassembled as we could get. I am hoping that all other teams did the same, or they will do the same next time.

As for purchased parts (wheels, etc.), I figure that you can bring them as an assembly, just like they were purchased.

GP means following the rules. Also, it means changing your ways if you did not know that you broke a rule.
