Re: Knocking off a ball while possesing a ball

This actually occured at San Diego today with our team. It was match 29 with blue alliance 968 2543 and 701. Our team (2543) was under the red track ball when we fired our arm to remove the track ball when our alliance member was attempting to place our blue ball on the rack. The refs made the penalty call on our alliance member for such a move (even though in fact it was our team to reomve the ball) and we lost the match. ANYWAY, to make a long story short...

we all entered the challenge box and the San Diego Refs formally announced that it is legal to knock off other trackballs while in possession of your own trackball.

They reversed the penatly on this match and we are still waiting for the rankings to change to say that we won this game. If you look on the first website, our match is missing.
