 Differentiating based on any superficial criteria (gender, race, or other demographic) only serves to reinforce the false idea that they matter. - JamesCH95 [more] |

Re: pic: 397 Bumper Configuration
It'd be pretty upsetting if the GDC reverses what they've already stated very clearly. All corners, both sides, 6 inches. It's intent has been pretty clear in the rules. That still leaves you 16 inches on a long robot to get a ball.
"Wrapping" the string so it touches just the outside edges of your robot and defining that as the bumper perimeter has been pretty well understood too (in my opinion). If this suddenly changes to allow teams more leeway, other teams that have made serious design decisions that can't be changed would be rather disadvantaged.
