As for G25, I've put in a Q&A, Q577. I suspect it'll take some follow-ups to edge anything but "Reasonably Astute Observer" out of the GDC. (Entirely unfair, as Head Refs are more than reasonably astute and they obviously disagree about this.)

Does G25 have the potential to apply (at the referees' discretion) to all types of 2-on-1 defense, or is the intent limited to field-centric blocks? Could intentionally impeding 1 robot with 2 defenders qualify as blockading if no other match flow is stopped?

Of course we all already know that the GDC will give the least useful answer possible. Thanks for the effort, though. I wonder how many of these incidents it will take before they learn the importance of writing proper rules?
