Lightbulb Questions about certain calls at UCF
Ok at UCF this weekend there were somethings I have questions about:

1. If any of you saw 179 coasting back after time was called and thought it counted, well I'm pretty sure it doesn't (I was told by a referee). Why not? I thought in past years it was allowed to coast back (I think?)

2. The rule for the loading zone infractions (the 30 point one) is only if the robot that is the victim "has the intent of getting a tetra" which I can see makes sense but is subjective to interpretation. I was manning the autoload station and I thought I saw some uncalled contact.

3. This year if you come down and touch a tetra after the match is over it counts and if your arm comes down and stacks a tetra it doesn't count. I remember from last year that if you came down after time was called from hanging it didn't count (yea different years I know but alot of people were confused on the changing standard so to speak).

These arn't complaints just some observations I made during UCF this weekend. The referees were always consistent with calls and did a very good job. The first one is the one that kinda bothered me the most.
