I was just watching the first finals match and noticed that 1555 lifted their bumpers with their robot!

Better fix that before Atlanta guys.

Hey everybody!

I just wanted to say on behalf of 1319, thank you all for such a fantastic regional!! Once again, Purdue held one kicking tournament with great competition and great people!

I would like to personally thank team 1737 and 1985, our alliance partners, for their great performance during quarterfinals and semifinals! Y'all were awesome and I hope we meet again one day!

The entire regional was a blast and definitely worth the 13 hour bus-ride

I hope all of you had as great a time as me and if YOU ever feel like travelling 13 hours it would be awesome to see y'all at the Palmetto Regional in SC next year.

Thanks for everything and good luck!

If they lift their bumpers over the bumper zone, they have to include the bumpers in the weight of the robot, otherwise it's ok to lift the bumpers over the bumper zone so long as they include them in the weight of the robot.

That was one of our questions to the GDC. Link

Thanks, good point. If they are outside the starting size would they be legal?

Yes. Non standard bumpers are subject to the same weight/size regulation of regular robots. I'm surprised no one caught onto this....I sure didnt
