Re: Suspension

ELEVATED: A ROBOT that is completely above the plane of the PLATFORM and in contact with the TOWER shall be considered ELEVATED.

SUSPENDED: A ROBOT only in contact with an ELEVATED ROBOT and/or a SUSPENDED ROBOT shall be considered SUSPENDED.

<G04> Scoring - b. Each ELEVATED ROBOT is awarded 2 points, or each SUSPENDED ROBOT is awarded 3 points.


To get the three points you would have to be off the ground and only in contact with a robot. It would seem, however, that you could be below the plane of the platform, and thus not ELEVATED, and still be suspended, as long as your only contact was with the robot you're hanging off of.
