It's the Magnolia Regional championship rubber game! Redateam easily scores 5 low ringers and a couple of overlapping mid ringers to score 44 pre-bonus points. Satisfied with their 7 ringers, Redateam prepares for their traditional 60 bonus point ballet while Bluateam battles for every ringer and completes a 6 ringer top row to gain 64 pre-bonus points. Redabot deploys both of its independent ramps from each side of their robot. The first of Redabot's allies climbs on a ramp and is lifted in a matter of seconds; the second has trouble because the Redabot ramp is on top of a red ringer. After several attempts, the buzzer sounds with Redabot's unpopulated ramp still resting on the red ringer. The Redalliance gazes up from successfully lifting one robot to 17 inches to see that Bluateam has failed to get any of their robots off the ground. With a quick calculation, the Redalliance cheers crazily; in concert with Redateam's gaze, Bluateam lifts their head in disappointment of not scoring any bonus points. Realizing their second-place fate, the Blualliance holds their heads high while it seems that Redalliance is screaming from two inches away instead of the fifty foot reality. As the referees seemingly remove all hope from Blualliance by indicating no penalties, the Blualliance begins whispering and then erupts in jubilation without explanation.
Based on the 2007 Rules, YOU MAKE THE CALL!
