It astounds me as to the large quantity of people who don't understand the rules/this concept at all. Especially one so frighteningly simple as G21. Allow me to enlighten you.

A robot. (eg yours) that is contacting the OPPONENT'S secret passage way. aka NOT your team color. A red robot in a blue secret passage, or a blue robot in a red secret passage. Got it?

Opposing robots, referring to a robot that is not on your team, AKA a different colored robot. If you are a blue robot, this would be a red robot. If you are a red robot this would be a blue robot.

In regards of who initiated it, the penalty is assigned to the offender.
Now lets take what we learned just now and apply it!

You (the robot) can't contact the other team (the people you are playing against not with!) in the opponents secret passage way (the secret passageway of the opposite color of yours)
Yay!
Since the blue robot (in the diagram) is never IN the red secret passage. We have no problems!
