Re: Flipping Rule
At the AZ North Regional we were rammed by another robot in the neutral zone while making a turn and tipped onto our side. The other robot then backed up and ran into us again and then turned to cross a defense.
No penalty was called which makes me think that flipping calls are mostly on intention. I doubt that the second hit was malicious and was probably just the other drive team trying to turn to the defense but missed their mark. I'm sure the refs caught this which is why there was no foul called. I trust the refs for the most part on making calls like this that deal with malicious intent, but if there is any doubt I would definetly dispute it.
