Re: Auto Rotor Point Total?

How can this happen? The only way an alliance can score 1RP is to have all 4 ROTORS spin, get 40kPa in the BOILER, or tie a match. Since there are only 30 FUEL at the beginning of AUTO, (and 1 FUEL in the HIGH GOAL during AUTO = 1kPa), the max kPa during AUTO is only 30kPa (30 < 40). And, to get all 4 ROTORS spinning, the alliance needs 13 total GEARS, and the alliance only starts out with 3 at the beginning of AUTO.

Is there some magic happening that I don't see?
