I'd also agree to dropping the 2" high entry point... but then the start:
"At the beginning of each round, the robots are to be placed at the
marker line and the rope threaded through them. They are then started
manually by their creators at the direction of the judge, officiant, or
whoever feels officious that given day."
needs to be clarified. Is the rope taut between the two bots or does it
droop to touch the table?
Regarding the weight limit, it would be nice to not have one....but
choosing a number is always tough. Personally I'd just like to rule out
any "extra" elements that don't provide game goal functionality...i.e.
just add weight...but that might end up being a judgment call. (why yes,
I _do_ need to power this lamp with 12 battery boxes in parallel...)
