We will also have Jr.FLL, FLL and FTC represented.
We will be offering tours with student ambassadors and through Baltimore Innovation Week.
And it's a guarantee that the drum corps opening the event is pretty special to watch!

Just wondering if the Battle O' Baltimore planning committee has any Rule Changes ? I looked on the website and it say it would be posted by August 1st but its a week later and I was just wondering

[RoboMom]

Planning Committee made some rule changes this week. Look for them next week on the website.
3 slots left.

We are pretty excited for this year's BoB. Last year was great. We missed by a whisker of winning, hopefully this year we will find the right synergy for a winning alliance.
Hoping to see updates for rule changes soon on the website.

I only count 27 teams out of a possible 32.
Hope to see a full contingent at BoB this year.

Rule Changes are now on the Battle O' Baltimore website

Rule Changes


•No inspection, honor system on legality. Gross / obvious violations of robot rules will be identified by field staff or referees and must be corrected before the robot continues.
•Minor protrusions outside the transport configuration are permitted during transport, subject to the discretion of the head referee and lead safety advisor.
•No G24 foul for obviously accidental incidents while attempting to score coopertition points.
•G33 is modified so litter may be introduced over the alliance station wall for the duration of teleop, including the last 20 seconds.
•Alliances may place staging area recycle bins and yellow totes themselves, but field staff reserve the right to adjust the placement of incorrectly placed game pieces.
•Yellow totes can be used to make regular stacks during playoffs.
•The top eight teams may not pick each other in alliance selection.
