I didn't see any rules limiting the number of game pieces a HP can touch. Nor did I see any rule about two HP's touching the same game piece. But I've just read the rules so far, I haven't studied them.

What makes you say that? To me I think they put a lot of time into the rules and making sure they made sense (other than the noodles)

I think the major source of entertainment for the audience is going to be watching robots get demolished by falling boxes. A solid plastic eight pound box falling from a 5' height is not friendly towards unprotected electronics.

Is that a pun I see there?

I think the game with be very interesting and I can't say I don't like the idea of removing win/loss records from the competition to even out the field a bit. There are quite a few ways (and that's just the ones discussed among my team) to go about the game and I'll be interested to see what everyone come up with this year.

Re: The 2015 game is... Recycle Rush!

Well, when they said that change was coming, they weren't kidding. the new rules on scoring are sort of confusing but at least we don't have to worry about an outrageous amount of defense now

Is that good or bad? Or more precisely, what do you mean by "rushed" in this context?

Re: The 2015 game is... Recycle Rush!

I'm also a senior this year and I completely agree with the not a throwing game idea. It was old for this year;s seniors who have had nothing but throwing things into things games.
