Re: Your tall opaque robot is now illegal

But going back to my first point. Now we have an issue similar to what is happening in the NFL (for those of you that watch) with the runner vs. defenseless player thing. Essentially my point is that it should be common sense to say that if a team has something really tall and big on their robot, like 1369, it is for blocking boulders. Especially when there is no reason to suspect that they are trying to "play" with the sensors/cameras. Now if a team came onto the field with a mock tower with reflective tape/metal/what be it. Ok, that should be taken away.

A good defensive robot shouldn't have to be disabled because a game with already poor driver viewing has something on the field that is trying to block their boulders and just happens to be big and not exactly see-through.
