Re: YMTC: Bluabot comes to rest touching a blue trackball on the overpass

Based on <G14>, there is a problem in that the ball is in contact with a robot of the same alliance, and would not score.

BUT, the robot was not in contact at the end of the match. This is defined in rule <G02> as when the clock reaches zero seconds. All stationary trackballs are scored at match end, trackballs in motion (and unrestrained) are scored when they come to rest.

Therefore, the trackball counts, Blues gets the 12 point bonus.
