Re: BUMPERS ARE INCLUDED IN ROBOT VOLUME THIS YEAR!
I am bummed about the number of robots that will come to competition this year unable to compete at all. Some years, overweight robots need to get Swiss cheesed, or lose a mechanism. Some years, bumpers need to be reconstructed. How does a team recover when they need to lose ~6" on both X and Y? And then rebuild the bumpers?

Someone should bring kitbot frames if they have any laying around. |

OP is potentially trying to win that AndyMark prize in a creative way.

That is trolling, in the most classic sense. Well played OP.

So who's asking this Q&A? I don't have a login to pester the GDC anymore, so I can't. |

You could loan COTS stuff to the Spare Parts table ...

Since we have almost ZERO entries on this contest, the OP has a good chance of winning. This $250 AndyMark credit could be easy money!!! C'mon, people, let's see entries to this G04 / R03 Robot Volume Contest! Sincerely, Andy B. |

Re: BUMPERS ARE INCLUDED IN ROBOT VOLUME THIS YEAR!
My kids are editing their video right now. We hadn't met since Saturday so this is our first real chance to work on it. It looks like fun! Hopefully they make it in by the deadline.

Re: BUMPERS ARE INCLUDED IN ROBOT VOLUME THIS YEAR!
Everyone,
If a team comes in over size please do not take it upon yourself to make any changes. Please involve the LRI who will help the team make decisions and then move on. They are in direct contact with the Head Ref, FTA and others at HQ who can best handle situations involving teams. All LRIs have my cell phone number and I have several other people I can turn to. Thanks. |

What's the rules about bringing something like that in? Is it like part of the allocated weight for parts or no? |

Re: BUMPERS ARE INCLUDED IN ROBOT VOLUME THIS YEAR!
Since it's assembled, it's gotta be bagged or withholding allowance. If unassembled (e.g. still in the box), then doesn't count for weight.
