Re: Limitations too far?

I don't believe they are limiting our creativity. I'll admit that prohibiting us from going beyond the bumper zone is a bit far, but this is clearly what they intended with the origional rules. The game could have another dimension, but I don't think they are limiting our creativity by doing things like outlawing descoring devices. Teams are supposed to be creative with robot designs, not finding loopholes in the manual.

There are still a number of ways to drive, pick up, score, and play the game. Enjoy the freedom you have.
