I just wanna touch on this one tiny thing - sometimes you think your auto is right, then it's not. If a student makes a small error, should they be yellow carded immediately for it? (I'm ONLY talking about this situation, not things like stepping over defenses, and other YC things)
Story time! In 2009, at the Bayou Regional, we set our auto to go for 2 sec, just enough to cross a line halfway down the field. Nope, that robot FLEW across the field and smashed into the driver station wall, moved the whole thing back an inch or so as well. Nobody's controls were thrown, nobody had issues that match. If it were your call, should we have been yellow carded? We mangled our robot arms and fixed the auto for the next match.
