Re: "reloading" the Outpost
An idea that was thrown around (pardon my slight pun) was for the Payload Specialist in the Outpost to be fed balls by the Payload Specialist in the Base.

I highly doubt that would be allowed, since technically you are tossing the ball out of bounds (re: Outside the Crater), & that is a pretty far toss between players, but it was a thought.

Also, if a robot can potentially dump balls out of a robot into a Trailer, why not feed the Payload Specialist in the Outpost as well with balls from a robot?
Just some random thoughts that probably will get shot down by the GDC, but meh. lol

PAYLOAD SPECIALIST: A pre-college student team member permitted to pass GAME PIECES into, and receive GAME PIECES from, the CRATER. There is one PAYLOAD SPECIALIST per TEAM.
Does "receive game pieces from Crater" = receieve directly from the surface of the Crater through (only Airlocks), or could it also mean receive from a robot in the area of the Crater (re: Over the Outpost wall, or even through the hole in the Outpost)??
