Maybe I've missed something... I'm not suggesting that the robot does not proceed into Q4, (althogh I think I might have misnumbered in my original post by considering the home stretch as Q-zero rather than Q-1) just that the robot enters Q4 from Q3 by crossing the opponent's finish line before crossing the quadrant line.

Mind you, now that I check thebluealliance in more detail it appears 190 may be finished for the season, making much of this hypothesizing a moot point.

Kudos to them for going with a cool idea. It is great to see teams thinking outside the box. Or, in this case, outside the quadrant!
