Re: Minibot Deployment Tower Base Contact

Dustin is correct, but remember that <G43> prohibits you from actually grasping onto the TOWER except during the END-GAME.

For some reason, the word Grasp made me think of Beatty's 2002 Robot Grabbing a tower and driving it to the other end of the field. That'd be so cool.

Your FTA and the field set-up volunteers will be working hard to make sure that can't happen. However, stopping Beatty (or another highly creative team) from moving the tower, will require a rule. Hmm, can anybody out there cite one?

I believe in intuition and inspiration. Imagination is more important than knowledge. For knowledge is limited, whereas imagination embraces the entire world, stimulating progress, giving birth to evolution. It is, strictly speaking, a real factor in scientific research.

Re: Minibot Deployment Tower Base Contact

That's what the troops said when I worked at Ft Huachuca...the Sargent would tell the E4 to go get the cable stretcher, after he cut the wire too short!

Re: Minibot Deployment Tower Base Contact

Hint: open Section 3 - The Game, and search for "disruption of the ARENA" ...
