Re: VEX Tournament at IRI!

No, I don't have a pic of the real field yet, I will get one up soon though.

Also, I have been getting many e-mails about rules and clarifications, so I will use this thread to post the Q&A:

vex q&a

What is the playing field surface? : carpet

Is loctite allowed? : yes, this will be the ONLY out of kit part allowed (this means no lubricants or ANY other fasteners)

Are you allowed to climb/scale/attach to the wall?
: the only set of rules on the wall say you cant force the doors open, the rest is up to you

Is the field perimeter grating (like the two divider walls)? : no, it will be a 2 inch high piece of wood

Is intentional tipping or damaging of an opponent's robot disallowed? : yes

Is intentionally or unintentionally removing an opponent's balls from the playing field illegal? : Yes, but removing a ball from a scoring conic is not illegal

Are Ni-cad batteries allowed? : Ni-cad batteries in the vex battery harness or vex batter packs are both allowed

Remember everyone, REGISTRATION IS STILL OPEN!! get in while you still can!
