Re: what qualifies as a penalty?

I can clarify what happend with the pinning during that match since I was the driver of the robot that was pinning the poofs. The head ref told the drivers in the meeting that pinning against the rack was not going to be called. Now since i failed to furrther read upon this rule, I would have noticed that in order to pin a robot against the rack legally, the robot needs to be holding a scoring object. The referees correctly assesed a penalty and informed me of the latter part of the rule that made my actions illegal. Knowing that rule now, I sincerely apologies to team 254 for blatantly commting a foul against them and those actions will not be repeated.
