Re: Question about the rules for Ultimate Ascent

I don't mean to Hijack this thread but it does have a very broad title so I figured I'd post my question here rather than make a new thread. According to R03:
Quote:
The ROBOT must satisfy the following size constraints:

a. total length of the FRAME PERIMETER sides may not exceed 112 in. (see Figure 4-1 for examples),
b. PLAYING CONFIGURATION horizontal dimensions may never exceed a 54 in. diameter vertical cylinder (see G23), and
c. height may never exceed 84 in. tall.
Do "HORIZONTAL" dimensions mean perpendicular to the floor or flush with the robot frame and bumpers? Also, does "PLAYING CONFIGURATION" mean at all times during the match, or is climbing a different configuration? Can a robot extend outside the 54" diameter cylinder while suspending itself on the pyramid?
