Dave, coach gave me the ole right-hand-to-the-mouth---left-hand-to-the-ear---tip-of-the-hat signal that means to pitch around such a strong lineup ... but a walk is a walk. I have sat the pine for a few weeks while the relievers got me out of the jam. With two weeks rest, I should be ready to go but my first pitch will probably be a
hanging curve ball.
Everyone, please allow me to explain how I approach the YMTCs. The YMTCs that I develop basically fall into the following three categories.
1) The scenario is straight forward and covered specifically in the rules. These are meant to be a general education of specific rules and are
hanging curve balls.
2) The scenario is realistic and is not directly addressed by the rules. These are meant to generate conversation over something that may happen that would leave officials scratching their heads.
3) The scenario is just silly and is not addressed by the rules. These are meant to generate light-hearted discussions about the rules.
Furthermore, the scenarios can also be divided into the following areas.
1) Game specific scenarios (scoring, penalties, etc.)
2) Robot specific scenarios (construction, robot interaction, etc.)
3) General scenarios (awards, logistics, etc.)
Thanks for letting me explain why some scenarios sometimes leave you writing, "Not sure why this one is even in question.",
