I think it was a Yahoo thing...

My recollection is that FIRST said that all improved raw materials must be shipped with the robot. As to where they said it, I think it was on one of the questions on Yahoo.

Anyone else have similar memories?

P.S. Message #358 seems to support a contrary view:

legal for a team to bring a manufactured replacement to Regionals in

> robot? (Such as a fractured frame)
A) You may bring manufactured spares as long as they do not violate
any other rule which disallows manufactured parts. FIRSTsnow



But... Message #459 supports the ship all improved parts side of the coin:

Quote:
A) First, you do not (and better not) ship your robots to FIRST, they
go to drayage and the events. Anything fabricated must be shipped
with the robot. Conversely, anything still in its original form from
the Kit or the Additonal Hardware List or Small Parts can be carried
to the event. You can build anything you want at the events.
