OR we could go back to better time in FIRST history when the policy on tipping was basically you shouldn't tip intentionally but if tipping does happen and you're the robot being tipped you had better design your robot to withstand that. Accept the fact that you are going to be tipped at a competition and build your robot accordingly...no problem. Also realize that audiences love to see robots go over. I think that the policing got well out of hand this year by the time we got to nationals where was almost no area on the field you could maneuver without risking a penalty and if you flipped someone look out you were either going to get a 60 point penalty or nothing at all depending upon which division you were playing in. How about everyone build some robust robots and we let things happen as they will instead of trying to play police and make sure nothing bad ever happens on the playing field.
