Re: Tipping opponents robots
Seek clarification on the Q&A, but in the "Aim High" game, there was a 30 degree ramp leading up to a platform, and there was a LOT of "vigorous interaction" between robots on and around the platform. If you made legal contact with another robot on or around the platform... and they tipped over... that was their problem.

Not that you would tip them intentionally, or cheer when it happened, but you didn't have to worry about being called for tipping.

"Previous year's rules do not apply to this game, etc. etc."
