Re: Team Update 13 (2016)

Hah, I was wondering how they'd deal with that. This game has the potential of being penalty crazy - push three balls into the other team's secret passage while your robot itself goes in there, and that's like three tech fouls and a couple regular fouls too. I can see it getting nasty with rookie teams doing dumb stuff and the referee spending all their time writing down penalties and not seeing my defense crossing. I really hope there aren't many penalties, but I see this game being a potential powder keg with the penalties. I'd assume I can still ask "what were all the penalties on blue alliance?" and being given a general, "lots of techs for balls in the passage, several for tossing balls over defenses, and a few for getting touched while in the opponent's passage." Maybe we won't be told exactly who committed the foul and exactly why, but I figure the alliance will know.

Crossing my fingers that FIRST knows what they're doing.
