Its a tough question this year because some robots are very prone to tipping over. This year, twice we've been in elimination matches where our opponents tipped. On one hand, I know if we took the same contact they did, our robot wouldn't tip. And I have no doubt we will receive aggressive t-bones and other types of hits every chance the defender can lay them on us. On the other hand, an action on our alliance's part may have knocked our opponent out of the match completely and you don't want to win that way. Ultimately it is a judgement call by the referee and its probably the hardest call they have to make this year. I wouldn't want to be in the ref's shoes.
