Re: Team Update #9
[quote=mathking;1019025]On the 2011 game: If the referee determines that you are intentionally trying to damage the internal workings of another robot you can still get a red card directly. What this update does is give the referee some discretion if, for example, you tip over onto another robot and damage it.
There is nothing within the language of G48A that suggests a red card can/will be applied, all references are to yellow cards only, regardless of intent...Is there a regulation elsewhere in the manual that allows a ref to disregard the specific language of a rule? Per my earlier comments, I wish there was a specific allowance for a ref to red card a team for intentional efforts (yes, intention is sometimes hard to determine) to damage another team/s robot...but this update seems to limit the penalty ( a yellow card is less a deterent than a red card, right?).
