Re: did any of this happen at your regional?

The former seems a little excessive, but maybe they considered that to be violating the latter rule, prohibiting teams from being closer than 3' to the controls.

ref calling a penalty if human player stack falls over during human player time
I don't agree with this at all. At other regionals, to my knowledge, this did not happen. There was a lack of consistency to human player rules across the country, and I think FIRST should provide some clarification as to which way was the proper way to do it.

This is legal. Sorry.

The animation isn't about robots.

a co rookie all star award
Every regional gives out two Rookie All-Star awards; one on Friday and one on Saturday.

Quote:
a 42nd place team with a 66 score average winning the rookie all start award ( us)
Rookie All-Star isn't for teams that win, it's for team's that exhibit the organization, drive and potential to be a lasting, competitive team. Congratulations!
