Re: Ball Stuck Under Bridge When Balancing?

Also, and totally just guessing here, if the ball is under the coopertition bridge, which alliance would you penalize for it? Unless they saw who rolled the ball under with malicious intent, then there's not much penalty they can give.
Quote:
Violation:Technical-Foul, and counting or discounting the affected Bridge as Balanced, as appropriate.
Technical Foul - already covered. Counting/Discounting the bridge? Well, it wouldn't be very penalizing if they automatically counted the bridge, and if they penalize one alliance for the bridge then the other one would inherently get penalized, because it's the coopertition bridge. I've never seen how the ref panel works, but I'm not sure there's a method for awarding one team the coop points without the other recieving as well.
