There is no foul for knocking over somebody's stack, IF the human does it via a flying noodle. I specifically left the robots out. (For a robot, the max is 7 "points" fouls in one move--tips a canned 6-stack out of bounds or over the step.)
But, you got 2/3.
Coach throws noodle in the last 20 seconds and puts hand over the wall while doing it. G31/G33/G4
2/3 of THAT one did happen at one event. I'm still not sure who threw the SECOND late noodle in that match...
Rachel, if the coach operates the chute door, it's a G6-2 red card, not a G6 penalty. G6 only kicks in if they're handling the totes at the same time. That being said, 30 penalties for the coach holding the chute door and throwing totes over the wall... At some point, the ref is just going to pull out the very last resort red card: Egregious Behavior. A red card so rarely (never?) used, it doesn't have it's own rule number (Section 5.5.4).
