Re: Rules G-30 and G-18-1

There are a few ambiguities/things open for interpretation in the rules this year. The best I can suggest would be to pose these questions to your event's head referee at the driver's meeting. This way it will be clear to your team and other teams at the event how the game will be called from the beginning. Personally I think the rules written with the "consequential" and "inconsequential" distinction are a bit vague and what is "consequential" can vary from person to person. If you are touching the pyramid and lined up to shoot, but not actively shooting at the time of contact which throws off your aim, is that "consequential"? Is contact in the loading zone that causes you to drop a frisbee as the human player is loading it consequential? These are all examples of questions to ask and get clarified at the driver's meeting with the head ref.
