Actually during one of the matches in which 330 got a ringer caught on their flag, they did have their alliance partner remove it.
I can't remember who removed it though. I want to say it was either 16 or 116...but I'm not positive.

Yeah it was the Bomb Squad that pulled the ringer off. That was one of the highlights of the competition for me.

It's not up to the refs to learn what each robot can do, thats why this rule was put in place.

Then what would be called if the opposite alliance placed a ringer on the robot? That's effectively disabling the robot and "unfair" if you ask me... I've seen it happen many times, and even at least once in the elims at IRI. But it really doesn't matter because the season's over...

<G09> covers this.

Per <G09>, I know I saw a few instances this year where an HP threw a ring (accidentally or intentionally, I don't know) onto an opposing robot. The robot continued to score and was not penalized.

We got the double-score tonight at the MARC competition. It was a practice round, and they didn't use their brand new "keeper" tubes, and we didn't bother to put our partner's corner touching the side of the tube, but still got the double on an official rack. Our home made rack is a little "off" from the official one so it took a while to get calibrated to the field rack perfectly, but it seems pretty good now. Hopefully we'll get another double or two tomorrow in more "official" matches. For now, here's a picture of the second one going on as time ran out.

By the way, MARC looks like it's going to be a LOT of fun. Way to go MARC Team!



and here's a link to the video posted on the MARC forum (near the bottom of the thread page):

For anyone following this thread, at the ARC (Autumn Robotics Competition) this past weekend at Macomb College in Michigan, we finally did it in an official match. In fact, it was the last match of the day in the finals. There are several videos of the event and I'm sure someone took a picture or two.

See this delphi thread: http://www.chiefdelphi.com/forums/sh...d=1#post645172

Take care all and see you in '08! :)
