In the rules, there is something about making your robots untraceable, isn't there?
Hi,
I'm Kiara from team 1304. We had the same question but it is ok to use your colors. The only problem is that one of your partners might get attracted to your robot instead of the tetra. So it's a judgement call to decide if you are going to use those colors.
