Re: YMTC: Is it goaltending?
1 things I would like to bring up.
1: even though on the same team as Jon we don't always share the same ideas.
2 : Ken, there is NO way a human player could ever knock the 2X ball off of the goal with a thrown ball. I have been to 5 regionals and even toughing the goal causes the ball to drop down deeper into the goal. This makes in even harder to get out.
3 : Dave, I believe that you are involved with the rule making. A good point was brought up about 2 robots fighting over the same 2X ball. If both robots are touching the 2X ball and a purple ball bounces off the 2X ball, which robot is deemed to be the controlling robot? The reason I ask is that if the red robot is trying to get the 2X ball from the blue goal then it would be goal tending but there is no penalty if the blue robot is trying to get the 2X ball as you can't be called for goal tending on yourself. I am NOT trying to be legalistic or cause more problems, just curious. If you would rather talk in person I could look you up at Championships.
