ROBOT COLOR THREADS

Hey, for all of you guys that are awake at this time (which i hope all of you guys are), can you change your robot color between matches. For example, if we start getting tracked (by accident) then can we change our color for the next match so we don't get tracked again? If not, can you give me the rule for that (I've checked over and over again and i havent found anything).
thanx.

P.S. I know there was atleast another thread kind of about this, but the guy who said it did not have any information backing him.

Rule <R26> No devices or decorations are permitted on the robot that are intended to jam or interfere with the operation of the vision system (i.e. changing robot color to confuse opponent’s vision system).

Depending on which colors you are changing from and to (e.g. any color with a percentage component of red, blue, yellow, or green), and what the inspectors or referees interpreted as your reason for changing color, you could easily run afoul of <R26>.
