Re: [FTC]: 2016-17 Game Manual Part 1 released!

Also importantly in the Tournament section of the manual - FTC now has yellow/red cards similar to FRC. The rules are very similar:

1) Once a yellow card is given, it carries with the team until the end of that phase of play (i.e. if one is given during quals, then the team has a yellow card until the end of quals. It gets reset for elims).
2) Once a team is carrying a yellow card, any subsequent yellow card (even in the same match) escalates to a red card. A red card means a match disqualification.
3) Once a team has received a red card (either directly earned or via a yellow card escalation), it carries a yellow card to subsequent matches.
4) In eliminations, a card for a team is a card for the entire alliance.

I'm sure there's more that I'm forgetting in detail, but that's the gist of it. Read rule <T2> for all the details . Read all of the rest of them, too!
