Re: Problem with Penalties
hmmm... After reading this thread again it seems to me that the "problem penalties," or should I say the most frustrating ones, have been those that were very easy to incur. Most of these, like the bumping in 2005, the "zones" in 2006, and G22 in 2008, involved the drive train entering "zones" or making contact with other robots at certian times.

Might it be fair to conclude that the GDC should avoid these types of penalties, or perhaps re-word them to penalize other robot functions?
