Re: Some thoughts on rules, refs, and ranking

Vague rules create situations like this. This situation and this topic are case in point as to why justifications like "common sense", "don't lawyer the rules", etc. etc. don't work. If the "blockading" rule is going to remain in the rulebook, it needs to be at a bare minimum clarified by examples, or else it will remain as it is now: it could theoretically be applied to any defensive effort by more than one robot, and no one knows where the line will be drawn.
