I can't speak to the specifics of how it happened since I didn't see it happen, but 1403 (our alliance partner) became entangled with 1676 and 1279 (our opponents) about halfway into the match.

The match was stopped mysteriously and the ref's grouped together for quite some time near the entangled robots.

Once the discussion was over it was decided that the match would resume.
I have never once heard or seen a match being stopped for any reason the refs decide or resumed. If it was a safety issue a G3 probably should have been called on all participating robots.

We then proceeded to question the resuming of the stopped match.

It was then debated for sometime of what should be done and it was eventually decided that it would be restarted and not resumed...



Another interesting item was that on Saturday drivers were told at the drivers meeting that gloves were required and fouls would be given for NOT using them during field robot loading/unloading. I still haven't found that rule. I do not know if any were assessed, but we didn't attempt to find out. We normally use them anyway.
