Would you mind clarifying something? I'm curious how a ball is scored and for how long it needs to be there. The rules state that a ball is scored when:

"Some portion of the ball is momentarily or constantly in contact with the green interior portion of the goal."

Lets say a robot acquires a ball, elevates it off the floor, and shoots it downward toward the green scoring zone. The ball hits the green gaffers tape and immediately bounces out of bounds. Does this count as a score? According to the rules I'd say it does. My brain is telling me it might not, maybe because this is nothing like how the game of pool is played and I'm not sure how far to take the pool analogy...
