Hello everyone,

If picking up an alliance partner is worth 10 pts, then is it also true that an alliance partner can drive onto your robot and not be touching the floor and recieve the points? Just food for thought....

That is correct. See Q25 in Team Update #2.

Just be careful when you are counting points here. Being off the floor is worth 10 points for the alliance. Holding someone off the floor does not get you 10 more points, it only gets you the 10 for them being off the floor.

I would think so, but I am not sure, you might want to check up on it with FIRST.
