Questions were asked. Here's one:http://forums.usfirst.org/showthread.php?t=16174

The answers were vague. We didn't drop the ball. We built a pole, with lexan plates, three limit switches & timer. Worked 100% with our minibot during development.

At NY, our minibot triggered the pole most of the time, pole didn't trigger once, but it was counted. I can only hope they are all counted at our next competition in DC.

If a time specification has been introduced, that has changed the specs and the game. We expected and designed to "Only one limit switch needs to be actuated" as per the Q&A Jan 16th.
