Re: Can you begin the game with a tensioned rope/string?

Is a tensioned rope the same as tensioned tubing or spring? One could claim rope, tubing, spring etc. is a robot part that is deformed. but is the rule intended for intentionally deformed or accidentally deformed?

My interpretation is deformed robot part is a part not originally designed to provide tension. i.e a bent chassis rail which if taken apart may spring out of place - thus has to be tensioned to be reinstalled.

My assumption is any tensioned catapult created with tubing, rope, springs, etc. will be illegal at star.

any thoughts?
