What if they use the Base Plate (32x32 studs or 10"x10") from LEGO as long as it fits (and stays) inside the base and not touching wall or secured to the mat and stays

No marking is allowed but they can put figurines or some type for missions.

4 - EQUIPMENT • EVERYTHING - Everything you use in the competition area directly or indirectly for strategy (mission-related activity) must be made entirely of LEGO-manufactured elements in original factory condition.  Stickers are not allowed, except LEGO stickers, applied per LEGO instructions.  Paint, tape, glue, oil, zip-ties, etc. are not allowed.  
— Exception 1:  You may reference a paper list to keep track of robot programs

I don't believe that would be allowed.  Paper 
is not a Lego product and everything has to be made by Lego.

One of  the kid in our team came up with the idea to place a paper at the base with  all the markings to start the motor for the various missions. I'm not sure  whether we'd place this paper with the various markings at the base and place  the robot on top. I would like to get the input from the community before  letting the team know.
