Joe,

I was writing my other reply just as you were. So I did not see yours in time, but I already said I would call to clear this up.

And BTW, my interpretation really does not benefit our team since we have a unique design that I would prefer other teams not copy at this point. But I did have a big ball grabber accessory design that we did not finish fabricating in time and decided to finish it after the first regional. The purpose was in case there were many other rampbots or balancer that were clearly better than us. But, if Eric says I cannot do it, then we will simply be a rampbot or pull goals around - no big deal or loss. Yet if I would have made the same interpretation as Bill, I would have thrown in what we did have completed along with some non-functioning parts with the intention of making it work at the competition or before the next ship date.

I also agree with you that it will hurt some other teams, specially the rookies, quite a bit.

Raul
