Re: can the game flag be used?
I'm curious about that. Let's say this:

Robot A is on offense, it lines up with the goal and pops off a ball at 12m/s or so at the goal, in the middle of its perfect arc a defensive robot drives by, with no intent to block at all, but the ball hits the flag, do they get a penalty? What if there's obvious intent to block? What if it's a robot from their alliance?

Could be interesting...

I'm a FIRST relic of sorts, I remember when we used PBASIC and we got CH Flightsticks in the KoP. In my day we didn't have motorized carts, we pushed our robots uphill, both ways! (Houston 2003!)
