Re: 2 Globe Motors???
Forgive me if I am incorrect here since I was not around FIRST before last year but this seems totally different than the "tether" rule being spoken of. That seems more like a rule interpretation issue. The 2 vs. 1 Globe motor thing seems more cut and dry to me.

1) <R39> clearly says we can only use the motors in the KOP.
2) We all got one Globe Motor in the KOP.
3) Three weeks into the build season FIRST now says "Oh yeah, you can really use 2 Globe motors if you want."

It is hard to say we will have to just "wait and see tomorrow" since we are almost half way through the build season.

Edit: Does this mean we can also use 2 of the Taigene motors as well?
