Re: Mini Robot

You will not get a DQ if you're moving upwards. There is no penalty listed for not stopping upward motion after the end of the match--after all, the minibot doesn't know it's the end of the match.

zjagoda, you may wish to re-read the Manual. Specifically, <G59>. The Field Crew will retrieve the Minibot if the teams do not. How they do that is kind of their option, and no guarantees are made as to Minibot safety/integrity after return to earth. A second call for the field crew to retrieve it is a Yellow Card. Two Yellow Cards is one Red Card or DQ.
