Re: FYI: Team Update #14 is posted! TAKE NOTICE!!!

Please Take a at the following excerption...

Add the following at the end of 7.1 as below. The new/modified text is bolded
and italicized and/or lined out.

Robot Starting Positions:
When discussing Robot Starting Position, the white lines will be designated "right" or
"left" based on the view of looking at an alliance station from the stationary goal of the
same color. As an example, in the top photo in section 4.1, for the Red Alliance this would
make the white line at the top of the photo the "left" line and the white line at the bottom
of the photo the "right" line.

Qualification Matches:
In Qualifying Matches, each alliance must declare which robot will start on the left
or right line as they are checked in to the "on deck" area before their match. Once
the alliance has declared left or right, these starting positions may not be changed
under any circumstance.

Elimination Matches:
In Elimination Matches a slightly different system will be used. In odd numbered
matches (1, 3) the lower ranked alliance (in this example they are the # 8 alliance)
must declare first which robot will start on the left and right. This placement can
NOT be changed once declared under any circumstance. The higher ranked (in
this example they are the # 1 alliance) will get to choose which of their two robots
in that match will start on the left or right side AFTER they have seen (or been
notified) what starting positions the other alliance has declared. In the even
numbered matches (2, and 4 if there is a need for a 4th match) the order is reversed
and the higher ranked alliance must declare first while the lower ranked alliance
gets to choose their starting positions second.
