Re: How does 469 not violate <R19>?

You know how hard it is to get onto those towers from the bumps unless you were already designed to do that, right? And if you're hanging, you're violating your normal configuration, right? It's not your tower, so no protection from penalties, right? You have to get off before the finale period, right?

And, if you're talking under the tower, I don't think there's room for 2 robots down there. <G29> gets called

Now, come up with a design that will not get a penalty, and will block 469 while somebody else is defending, and we'll talk.
