[Whatever]

This came up at a state qualifier event.

A team that was already qualified for the state tournament was changing beacons to their opposing alliance color in order to increase their rank points during their last match. This was not a case of an alliance not contesting the beacons but was a team tailing their alliance partner and switching beacons after their alliance partner had changed them. I see nothing in the rules against this behavior but it has caused quite a bit of debate among the students/mentors/parents. I wanted to get a feeling for whether or not the community believes this would be considered gracious professional behavior or not.
