Re: First CROSSING not being scored?
Taking into accoint what the rules say and the typical intent that FIRST has witht heir rules, that whenever a robot crosses it's own finish line it should receive 2 points. Even if the robot did not move during hybrid, allowing a robot to score 2 points after crossing their finish line initially gives a Rookie Team the chance to atleast score 2 points. I think that this is somwthing that the GDC needs to address and get fixed either by fixing the system or telling us why it is correct the way it is as of now.

Just my 2cents
