Re: Definition of a Pin

The video isn't great (we borrowed an old camera from the school) so I am relying on my human player who was 5 feet away from it. He said it was a pin.

We did mecanums this year so we can get out of most pins. I can't tell how much 3669 can maneuver with a tank when squeezed into a corner.

My point is that there is place between the goal and the alliance wall (robot at 45 degree angle to alliance wall) which a bot can be pushed into that they can't get out of without "chasing" if they have a tank

I agree they should have let themselves be pushed more instead of fighting and the pinning count would have started.
