Re: Overdrive <G22> poll: yea or nay?

I agree with the comments that "intent" should be determined. At the AZ regional there was a match with 120 or 130 penalty points (can’t remember which) and 90-100 of them were in Hybrid mode, the team was just spinning in circles around the lines, not intentionally I would imagine. I think when a situation like this arises, completely taking an alliance out of a match before it really begins warrants change. I can understand rules for robots destroying the field, or leaving the field of play, which deserves an E-stop/disable from the refs, but this seems a little excessive. Also; there seems to be about 20-30 penalty point average in most matches from what I have seen (NJ/Az regional).
