I do wonder about the definition of "in" though.

If you have a stationary outer shell shaped like an open 'U' with three openings
and a floor, and a bot that just drives out of the openning of the 'U', would
blocks collected on the floor be considered "in"...or would the shell have to
completely encompass the collected bricks (like an "O")?


According to the rules, if a block touchs the arena floor it's out of play, so
the shell would have to have a floor.
