That would be a yellow card worthy offense I believe, because to apply this strategy you would have to occupy the opposing home zone during the end game period.

30 points. It wouldn't be carded unless it was done multiple times. See the LSR quarterfinals for a use of this strategy and the aftermath.

Re: Bad Call?

Let's review. You have one robot. It has many parts. All the parts are connected to the robot. If any of those parts are supported by a tube, the robot is supported. It's that simple. And that's how the GDC has ruled.

Without that ruling, you would have the complication of deciding how much of a robot has to be supported before the whole thing is considered supported.
