When will the rule changes be announced? I'm sure many teams, including mine, will factor the changes into their decision.

That was quick. Someone asked about it earlier today!

I wish my team was closer. It would be really nice to do some off-season events.

You do know that there are typically 3-4 offseason competitions in MN, and a number of workshops events, right?
Hopefully someday I'll be able to make it over for Chezy Champs. Last year's event looked like a blast, and I anticipate this years to be as fantastic.

2073's application is submitted!
We are looking forward to this excellent event again this year.

As for rule changes, I'm hoping processed/non-processed litter becomes less of an issue. It made scoring for the Ref's a bit more difficult than necessary.

Would it also be possible to allow Robots to move Litter across the Co-op platform without penalty? That might make for some interesting strategy adjustments as well as allow for some interesting mechanism designs between now and then.

Here is the tentative list of rule changes for Chezy Champs:
Quote:
  1. Each alliance may place up to three additional recycling containers anywhere on their side of the field, except for the AUTO ZONE, prior to the match.

  2. The left-hand (when viewed from the alliance station) line of five gray totes against the step will be right-side up.

  3. The right-hand (when viewed from the alliance station) line of five gray totes against the step will be removed and the totes will be placed in the alliance station instead. The space they occupied will be filled by moving the remaining nine right-hand landfill totes up against the step, while maintaining their orientation relative to each other.

  4. During the autonomous period, robots may not contact the two recycling containers on the left side of the step (when viewed from the alliance station). Violation: Red card.

  5. No points are awarded for processed or unprocessed litter, but litter in recycling containers will be scored as per the official rules.

  6. One alliance's litter may not contact anything on the other alliance's side of the field. Violation: Yellow card.

  7. Litter may be introduced over the alliance station wall at any point during the teleoperated period.

  8. Causing yellow totes to transfer to the other side of the field while attempting to coopertate will not result in a foul.

  9. Yellow totes are counted as gray totes when scored on the scoring platform, during the entire tournament.

  10. Playoff rounds are head-to-head, best of three, using the 2014 bracket structure.

  11. Any number of alliance members may be within the human player zone during the teleoperated period.

  12. Alliance members may contact the chute door and totes simultaneously.

  13. Teams must be able to demonstrate, if asked by the head referee, that their robot fits within the TRANSPORT CONFIGURATION, but may transport their robot however they see fit.
