megabass31 is an unknown quantity at this point
I'm just reporting what I saw on the stream from the competition. It sounds like all of this is a judgement call on the part of the refs. But I did see on robot do something very similar to what you talked about. The team basically had their bot do a spread-eagle formation. It had two arms out-stretched to try and stop any goals from entering the goal zone, with an extension back to their home zone. It seemed like a good idea, but I wondered about any rules violation with this. It almost worked also, but one of the goals was just barely in the goal zone which gave the other alliance the ten point victory in the match. Oh well, good luck to all.
