Engineer on team #237, sie h2o bots, from Watertown high school ct and sieman co.



I had a thought as to what is considered the end of the game. The doubler points are scored when the buzzer sounds at the end of the game and the ramp is in balance with nothing touching the ramp.
What happens if the ramp tilts and falls just as the refs are counting the points? Does any one think that the score should be counted as in balance with the doublers or not.
Teams will also have to be very careful when removing their bots from a ramp after the end of a game as there is a chance of damage to bots as the ramp moves up and down and team members being hurt by falling goals or crushed toes. Should team members wear helmets and safety shoes for safety sake?
I know I know its late and these are the things I think of when the brain cells start to die.
But its an interesting thought though.
