I had personal experience with this one yesterday, and I think that's why it is on here.
Not so fast: Section 4 of the manual, under 4.12.2 states:
Quote:
4.12.2. Drayage Company Regulations
Teams cannot take their robot/crates home from any event. They must ship through the SES designated carrier, Roadway, Inc. or use their donated FedEx Express Freight shipment when shipping between events.

I still do not understand the reasoning behind this rule, but it's very plainly spelled out right there. Redabot is required to take the trip home in the box, through the shipping company.
Now can someone explain why?
EDIT: On second glance, this rule is poorly written--it appears to be there to prohibit teams from taking the 'bot home
between events. But, because of the poor wording, the robot must be shipped home, too.
