Re: First CROSSING not being scored?

Rule interpretations not withstanding, allowing the first line crossing to count in teleop mode will lessen the significance of crossing the line in hybrid for those programming rookies.

They need all the encouragement via scoring we can give them, so that after a first step this year they'll be better prepared for future autonomous/hybrid games. Putting a toe in the water is the hardest thing to get them to do.

Every game design should be a means to an end.
