Re: [YMTC]: Reversible Bumbers Rules
At some times during that match your alliance color was ambiguous; this was especially so with about 90 to 80 seconds left, about 5 to 15 seconds after 876 was flipped by (IMO clean) contact while you defended against them. After the flip, a ref can be seen counting off the ten second grace period during which no opposing robot is permitted to contact them. During that count and for a few seconds afterward, your robot's incorrectly colored bumper side was facing toward the Head Referee. That might be a reason for ruling your alliance color ambiguous per G19-1.

I believe in intuition and inspiration. Imagination is more important than knowledge. For knowledge is limited, whereas imagination embraces the entire world, stimulating progress, giving birth to evolution. It is, strictly speaking, a real factor in scientific research.
