Re: bumper design

It looks like a significant number of teams, even this late in the build season, do not yet understand the bumper rules, team updates, and the clarifications in the Q&A forums. CD only has a portion of teams reading these posts, so from what we are seeing I would imagine a signifcant number of teams will be considered illegal due to their design. If repairs can not be made in the pits to correct this issues, we will unfortunately see a lot of "push bots" that started out as shooters. I encourage, as a point of strategy, that all teams think about how they might be able to correct/fix these design flaws for those teams that might end up being their alliance partner.
