Re: Robots Hanging from the Floor

What Joe is indirectly saying:

You may grab the bar and be touching the side of the platform. That is not illegal. However, it does not constitute as HANGING and therefore would not give you the points for HANGING.

Points for HANGING Robots: 50.
Points for Robots Holding the Bar but being mostly supported by a field piece: 0.

Hanging and Holding/Touching are different.

Re: Robots Hanging from the Floor

I think this particular question has been answered. Read Joe Johnson's or Gadget470's posts, they gave pretty decisive answers. No more discussion is needed, and definitely no more arguing about this rule is needed.
