Re: Stablizing the goal.

The interpretation of rule G33 is going to be critical to some teams that have already referred to this type of design. I don't see how they will determine a grasp vs general contact; will it impede the spiderleg's motion along 2 axis or 3? If it impedes the spiderleg's motion along 3 axis - it's clearly a grasp/grapple, but restaining it along just 2 axis? I know how I would like to see it interpreted but this question will need a precise clarification from the game design committee. So we wait.....
