Re: <G28>

The other day I overheard our Chief Scout explaining his definition of an "exploitation" of said rules to other students:

Example:
Red Robot is sitting on the Red Key shooting
Blue Robot approaches the Red key and suffers some system failure rendering it motionless.
Red Robot chooses to drive over and taps the Blue robot repeatedly while remaining in contact with the Red Key.

His logic for this being an exploit is that the contact serves no purpose other than to gain a penalty, especially since the Blue robot is not a threat.
