1. the "no defense" rule: how are you supposed to stop an opponent from scoring??? you let them?! i don't think so! this is going to be such a high scoring game! you think the judges wasted alot of time making decisions last year?! just wait.

Remember: bumping and extension-extension contact are allowed, and if you can't figure out how to play defense now, you're not thinking hard enough. Besides, this is supposed to be an offensive game. Last year was very, very low scoring, in my opinion.

2:you cannot lift your boom above 6 feet in the opponents area... how are you supposed to knock sown opponents balls at the end?! you might as well not bother trying to knock them off cuz you'll get penalized!!!!!

Umm... are you being sarcastic? Either way, this is supposed to be, essentially, a race. The whole point is to do laps, in one direction. If robots were going in the opposite direction, this year would be even lower scoring than last year, it'd ruin the whole flow of the game, and there'd be too many collisions to boot.
