If a robot can't get over your runner, big deal! The runner is a part of your robot. You wouldn't expect a team to be able to drive over any other part of your robot, why should the runner be any different? I can build a robot that would unfold to be as wide as the arena and just creep up the field - would that be entangling if a robot couldn't get around? Nope.

Furthermore, if a team tries to entangle an arm or tether that is lying on the floor, the team that is spinning donuts is at fault, not the team that built an arm that is difficult to entangle.

And lastly, chill out. Don't be a jerk and try to pick up someone's tether, and don't be even more of a jerk and swear at volunteer refs. It won't help anyway - as the saying goes, you get more flies with honey than with vinegar.
