It was certainly a HURDLE by this definition. Where the robots are is not important.

The robot indeed was not HURDLING according the next definition in section 7.2. However, that doesn't make a HURDLE impossible. It just means the robot is not granted protection from interference by other robots.

I was under the assumption that would not count

"

That is merely the definition of a robot in the act of completing a hurdle to clarify when impeding is not called and when interference can be called.

<G11> Each TRACKBALL that HURDLES its own FINISH LINE will earn 8 points (2 points for
CROSSING the FINISH LINE and a 6 point bonus, yielding 8 points total).

Very nice. We did that once, although accidentally, over the wrong overpass. Right now though we are struggling to hurdle at all..

The only other comparably good endgame move I've seen was this one:

It's much better to be watching things like this from home than from the opposing driver station. :p Awesome job, 27.
