Re: end game defense
All of the discussion here has been focused on <G25> and the associated penalties. But what about <G03>? It states:
<G03> END GAME - The final 15 seconds of the TELEOPERATED PERIOD is called the END GAME. During this period, no ROBOT may be in an opposing ALLIANCE HOME ZONE. (emphasis mine) The intent of this period is to permit ALLIANCES to attempt to score bonus points without undue interference. An audio signal will sound five seconds before the start of the END GAME period, and again at the start of the END GAME period.
This clearly speaks to the "intent" of the GDC for the End Game period. Violating the intent of the GDC could well be considered an egregious violation of the rules. I would not be surprised to see yellow cards handed out for "intentional" violations of <G03>. Or perhaps a further clarification of this rule may occur?
