WHY?  at max, 10 robots at 12" will only ever fill at MAX, all lined up
in a row, just over 1/10th of the play area.

thats TONS of room.

no. i think we can leave it at 12" knowing that only you and Steve will
build to the full 12"

i think my moc-up is a good place to start.

the HITW should be 16 studs long (OD) and, 8 studs (ID)

it is 14 "bricks" tall (OD) and 8 bricks (ID)

i suggest the bottom brick of the HITW be placed 4 bricks above the floor.

and remind people that only bricks in your "hopper" should count towards
final score. and your hopper has to be enclosed.
