Re: Is it possible to score a ball without POSSESSing it?

A robot can POSSESS the ball without being in a specific zone. (That is, if the robot straddles more than one zone, it is not credited with possession in either one.) So, a robot could conceivably receive an inbound ball while on say the red/white border, toss over the truss to an alliance robot straddling the blue/white border, and that robot could shoot the ball into the high goal. You would get truss and catch points yet 0 assists. The scoring for 0 and 1 assists just happens to be the same, is all.
