Had someone do that at Ventura, too--matter of fact, that image from 900 matched it perfectly. Damaged the robot in question so we replayed the next morning.
Funny thing, the next match had to be replayed for the exact same reason (except the rock wall didn't leave the platform).
Had a pair of dikes on the field at Ventura, nobody claimed them to my knowledge.
I've seen some standards being picked up by the field crew.
But the best one had to be the robot that left 1/4 of their drivetrain on their own castle's batter while playing defense (4WD, with a pair of raised wheels in the middle for obstacles), which dragged that corner and raised the opposite wheel, so now they were a 2WD, and somehow managed to "limp" to their Secret Passage, get across the Neutral Zone, and make it for a Challenge. I was highly impressed.
