In our first elimination match, our alliance's (team #19 Bell Atlantic/GreenwichHS) robot went dead. when checking out the situation, they said it was because they didn't have capacitors on our speed controllers (neither did our robot), but let the match be re-run because FIRST never specified that point at the beginning and was trying throughout the competition to get teams to put them on.
i was just wondering if anyone new the real ruling on that (although i'm sure/hope there will an update regarding it)? at any of the other regionals were teams advised to put them on the InnovationFIRST SC, or was this only at the UTC Regional?
