: Does anybody else see this?
: why would first make it a requirement to have it 8 feet in the air if they didnt want to see robots tip.Cause if something is that high up with a little base it's going to fall with little force acted upon it.

well, as nate has already mentioned, there is a very fine line between this situation as our team in specific has seen. We were tipped and 'trampled' over by another teams robot, and nothing was said. I know Dean alwayas says stuff about
'its not in the spirit of the game' but what does that really mean? If what Chicago has seen with various rounds is not against the rules, how far can a team go with out being dis-qualified?
