Best Bumper Rules EVER!

Okay... it's an awesome game.

But even more important than that... finally... bumper rules that achieve the goal without being needlessly restrictive. Chamfer the corner? Mitre the corner? Who cares?

Round noodles, star noodles, solid or hollow? Doesn't matter.

"1346" or "13 46"... doesn't matter so long as it's clear what your team number is!

3/4" Plywood, or a nice solid piece of maple as your bumper backing? Doesn't matter. (Just avoid particle board and such that won't take the impact... and no, I'd never waste a nice solid piece of maple as bumper backing.)

Thank you, GDC. Thank you, thank you, THANK YOU!

Jason

P.S. Okay... maybe the bumper rules aren't actually "more important" than the fact that it's an awesome game... but they make me happy.
