| I have a question for people who have built (or are building) robots for Deep Yellow. Has anyone else noticed the common area restrictions to be a problem?

So unless it's impossible, let's just make sure everyone's aware of this restriction and work around it. (...) I don't really love (...) (21 years ago, 24-Dec-03, to lugnet.org.ca.rtltoronto)
