I'm wondering if perhaps they shouldn't increase the penalty for this infraction. Knock one of their hurdlers over, even unintentionally, and you odds of winning increase astronomically, even with a measly 10 point pen.

Intentionally knocking over a robot will almost assuredly result in disqualification.

If your robot's traveling at 10 ft/s -- a reasonable number, I think -- you need only release the ball for .5 seconds. That's not so bad.
