Hi all. Due to personal circumstances it looks like I'm going to have to step away from robots for a fair bit. Finding the money and headspace for it is going to be very difficult for me for at least the rest of the year. It looks like it'll be best if I pull out of hosting this next event too. I kn...

I agree with all that and think 5) can be pretty much discarded as an option.

Do you mean swapping one robot out for another mid-comp? Then it's not a fair comp. If your robot progresses, you have to deal with any damage it takes along the way as part of the challenge. If you have the option to swap it out for a reserve machine, then it's completely unfair. I don't personally...

But I also believe that what 2b is supposed to mean is pretty widely understood by everyone and that, in this case, it is being exploited away from intended meaning. 2b means that a complete robot (yes, al...

As I've said before, sir, I (and many others) believe rule 2b makes ROBOX against the rules*. We are currently in the process of accessing that rule to clear up the loophole used and make it as explicitly clear as possible. *EDITED ON BEHALF OF TEAM EFFORT - against what this rule is meant to convey...

I think that the last part of 2i is being misinterpreted. I remember when it was added and why. Its supposed to mean if the individual fleaweights want to also take part in the fleaweight competition (if there is one) as separate robots then they must conform to the fleaweight rules as well. It does...
