The text on page 2 of Update 13 is not part of the rule.

<G11> is the rule that gives points for hurdling. It does note a 2+6 score, but I think that is only so no one thinks the team should get 8 points for the hurdle plus 2 more for crossing.

You do get 8 points for the hurdle including the trackball going over the overpass for 6, then 2 for the trackball crossing the finish line. You then get an extra 2 points for the robot crossing under the overpass. You get 10 for the hurdle and the robot going under I'm not sure what you are saying but im trying to clarify.

Now on to the update.
It does say only G14 which is placung at the end, but if it rolls of would they score it as a hurdle because the trackball scores when it lays at rest. The way I see it, it should count a hurdle, but its confusing because its only in G14. I'm wondering if they just made this rule so that if a trackball gets thrown up at the end of the match, and when the clock hits 0 it is on the overpass, but rolls off right after. Maybe they made this update to take away scores instead of making it easier?
I guess i'm confused because I could see it both ways
