Re: Ramps extending outside of the home zone

At UTC we had a fragile drive train but a good ramp, so we just sat there and deployed early. In one QF match our ramp wouldn't deploy (the battery cable was looped over the pushing arm), so we went out to play defense. The first time we got hit our ramps went out, giving us a 10pt penalty, but netting 50pts and the win after we made it back to the HZ and had both partners drive up.
