Re: Is this considered damaged?

Actually, someone did ask about what sort of damage would remove a game piece from use. Not quite the same question, but I do anticipate that a robot that rendered a game piece unusable in one go would be asked to fix something. That RC is--if not fixed by pushing--pretty much unusable, and even after the fix it would be "suspect" (that is, monitored for cracking, and probably replaced for eliminations).


My take on a possible Q&A: "If a single robot interacts with a game piece such that the game piece is deformed, but still can be restored to near its original condition in a short period of time, would this in general be considered damage per G16? We recognize that the referees have final say during the match, but would like some guidance for the teams."
