Re: Do minibots need to stay at the top of the pole?

In terms of it staying at the top of the pole:

TRIGGERED – the act of pushing the bottom disk of the TARGET so that the sensors are tripped and a signal is sent to the Field Management System (FMS). When a TARGET is TRIGGERED, the MINIBOT RACE on that TOWER is complete.

Page 12, Section 1

By this definition, it doesn't seem that it needs to remain there, it just needs to touch the top.
