The rules are simple. Your robot may, during normal play, not exceed 72" X 72". Use your GP, stay within the confines of the rules, don't try to bend or break these rules and everything will be fine. Yes, some rules make the game hard - that's the point! With each limitation comes a new challenge, another opportunity to show off your team's ingenuity.
Personally, I would hope that refs would never have to whip out their 72-inch measuring sticks - if the robots are designed respectfully within the given boundaries, there won't be any problems.
