Re: pic: Who should have gotten the foul? part 1

I saw two touches of the pyramid, one at 1:30 and one at 1:35. I reviewed the rule for pyramid touches:

G27
ROBOTS may not contact or otherwise interfere with their opponents’ PYRAMID. Inconsequential contact will not be penalized.

For the first touch, the only robot touching the blue pyramid was the red robot, so the contact was inconsequential. For the second touch, a blue robot lined up on an opposite corner to shoot while the red robot was still touching. I ruled this as also inconsequential.

At 2:02, at first it looked like red might have touched while blue was hanging, but I could see a white disk on the ground between the red robot and the pyramid, so no touch.
