Re: "Load Bearing Surface"
ID: 1757 Section: 4.3.3 Status: Answered Date Answered: 2/25/2005
Q: In regards to ID1617, i would like to refer to Section 4.3.2, the picture on the right of <S06>. The diagram illustrates an O.K way of loading the tetra; it is clear that the robot is straddling the triangle. Please change ruling or clarify.
A: The pictures are for illustrative purposes only and may not be completely detailed. The purpose of this picture is to demonstrate the human player loading only. Also see #978... the rule has been "touching" since 1/11/2005. Using the baseball analogy,... Imagine in baseball if the runner just had to be over the base to be safe?
There you go. 'Touching' has been there since 1/11 and the baseball analogy. I believe both of those were mentioned in this thread.
