I may be completely stupid, but is it actually against the rules to gently flip a robot to immobilize it for defense?
G24 states - Strategies aimed at the destruction or inhibition of ROBOTS via attachment, damage, tipping, or entanglements are not allowed. It seems like it is against the rules, but I am too hopeful to pass up the idea completely. Someone please clarify, thanks. |

Re: Flipping Rules?
Haha I barely read the rest of the thread because I was scrolling through looking for a specific post but I stopped on this and laughed for a couple minutes.

Re: Flipping Rules?
Is there anything about flipping yourself? Kind of like those RC cars that can drive whether it's right side up or upside down.

Re: Flipping Rules?
As long as your bumpers would still be in the correct zone I don't think there is anything against it.

Re: Flipping Rules?
It's illegal to stop the flow of the game. Flip your own robot intentionally would be considered stop the flow of the game.

Re: Flipping Rules?
I think they are talking about being able to flip over and still drive around.

Re: Flipping Rules?
Is this a joke?
1. Flipping anyone else is very clearly illegal. 2. How would flipping yourself over be useful at all? Pointless discussion imo. Yes it seems legal to flip yourself over and keep driving but this isn't battlebots. |

Re: Flipping Rules?
Flipping over obstacles may have some merit. See team 1011 Crush in 2010.

Re: Flipping Rules?
Interesting fact that goes with this is regardless of how well a robot serves you, providing a tip to show gratitude is not allowed either.
