Oy. I knew this was possible when I read some of the early defensive posts, but I never brought it up to my team since I never wanted them to even think this way in terms of building a robot. It's a good thing the GDC addressed it.

[In general, not completely related to this update] It seems to me that the rules this year could add some severe conflicts of interest if the referees have any affiliation with teams on the field or have a bias based upon a team's history. Who's chasing who? who backed off first? Was something intentional? Did that minibot deploy a fraction of a second too early? They're all subjective and at the mercy of referee interpretations. I don't think it would be a big deal except that the subjective parts are all getting more visibility. At this point I think all we can do is hope that an alliance in elims doesn't appear to try it.
