"If a robot releases a ball prior to the timer hitting zero during the hybrid period, but it completely passes through the top hoop after the timer hits zero, will this ball be worth 3 or 6 points. What is the determining factor? Time of: release, passing through the hoop, passing by the sensors?"
Answer is in pending state
So it looks like we found out the answer today. I am not a fan of this small quirk of the game because it gives us fewer than 15 seconds to complete our task.

These is usually a 1-2 second pause between autonomous and telop that would make up for this, but they seem to have shortened that pause this year. Maybe they could add a little more time or actually pause the game until a ref hits a button saying that everything has settled (I think this has been done in previous games).
