It is pretty amazing to me how much things have changed in a year. Last year if you just accidentally brushed a robot in the loading zone you were hit with a major 30 point penalty. This year full contact is encouraged and even high speed ramming is not even being penalized via the rules from what I can tell from the webcasts.
