You are not allowed to touch outside the home zone (even by an inch) when deploying larger then 72 by 72 correct? (this is for the bottom robot with the ramp, its not clearly defined in the rules, but the tape is considered in the zone.
Not allowed to be outside the HZ, but I'm not sure whether that includes the tape or not.
And using the ramps for more than parking robots on--I'm not sure what that team is up to (other than blocking off a few tubes, maybe?), but I'd suggest that they make dead sure it's legal. If there's any doubt, they should ask Q&A if someone hasn't already.
