Re: Human Players Only?

Quote:
<G17> SMALL balls may only be SCORED by the HUMAN PLAYER’s direct throw. If any other team member throws a SMALL ball into the field during a match, that team’s ROBOT will be disabled and the
team will be disqualified.
Theres the full rule, sorry for the partial quote, tried to condense it a little too far :-P. Personally I still take it as being that the small balls must be scored via Human Player, not chute dump, although I realize it is really open to one's interpretation. *shrugs* heck, I know I've been wrong in the past about plenty of things, I think this is one of those issues that FIRST needs a little bit of clarification.

[EDIT] Two teams have already asked this question for clarification in the FIRST Q&A section of their website. Like the others it is currently unanswered, but I am sure we will see an answer soon [/EDIT]
