Basically you have to use tapes that are proven to "hold their shape" and not leave residue.

Actually it was a Scotch brand carpet tape that was supplied by the inspectors and deemed legal. As said above, we used it the entire second day. I dont think it worked quite as well, but it didnt leave the residue.
If others use this dont do it if you just have a pusher bot. We received a penalty during the finals because if you push a ball into the goals the ball will not come off and you will receive a penalty for carrying a ball. You have been warned.
Here is an example of what it is, it should be available at a Home Depot:
