My team, MOE, as DQed becuae our chassis was under the goal. Even though it was unintentional and it did not help left the goal or anythign, we were DQed. It happens that the design og two bots at Drexel allowed their chassis to ride up under the goal and sometimes it worked to their advantage in a pusing match. However, the ruling was that they would be allowed to compete, announced by Woody himself. So i aggree that VCU was a regional that FIRST was going to use as a test. They realized that it was wrong to DQ a team foran unintentional part going unde the goal. I completely aggree with their desicions in that respect.

tether rulings seem to vary from regional to regional and i guess that all of us will just have to deal with any of the rulings made y the officials.
