Re: [FRC Blog] The Right Thing to Do

Wondering why the GDC ruled as they did. Wouldn't it be a much more exciting game if the RC battle continued until the can was *entirely* on one side of the step? They had the choice to answer the question consistent with the ref's original ruling, and it would add a bit more alliance interaction (even more in higher level play) in a game that has nearly none.

I'd suggest they consider an update prior to CMP to allow a fight to continue until the entire game piece is beyond the step volume-- in other words, modify the rules for CMP to match the ref's interpretation of the ambiguity.
