Re: 2016 IRI Rule Change Suggestions

Change a challenge to only require 2 robots. Stop penalizing alliances a RP just because another of their robots doesn't show up to the field (happened to us 3 times this year). Keep a capture at 3 robots.

Please do NOT remove the safe fire zone in the defenses. Too many teams designed with this in mind (us included).

Change accidental contact when crossing defenses so it isn't a foul.

If a robot breaks down, don't allow other teams to gain points from them. A blue alliance robot broke down in our courtyard and it made me feel a little immoral when two of our robots hit him trying to get to the batter and got climb points for it. If they interfere with something fine, but being broken down in a corner.... no.
