Actually, G25 was rewritten in Team Update 15 to add the following text (emphasis theirs):
Quote:
|
If the tipping, entanglement, or damage occurs where it is not a part of normal game play, at the referee's discretion, a 10-point penalty will be assessed, and the offending team/ROBOT may be disqualified from that match.

Personally, I would change "where it is not a part of normal game play, at the referee's discretion" to "where the action violates any of the following conditions [the list at the end of G25], is obviously malicious, or beyond the spirit of Gracious Professionalism."
I know, I know, people argue daily about what GP really is--but if you stick to Woodie's basic definition of making your grandmother proud, you've got yourself a standard. Maybe I'm just naive, but I'm willing to bet that most drivers know what kind of driving would make their grandmother proud.
Man, I wish I'd thought of this thread--good question!
