As per the rules, a big ball must be TOTALLY supported by the goal. If it is touching any robot or any surface of the playing field, etc., it will not be counted. (See Rule SC3)

IMHO, the big balls SHOULD count, seeing that it is extremely difficult to group the four balls together to put the big ball on top. Unfortunately, it would be hazardous (small balls knocked away easily) and it would eat up all the time multipliers in the attempt.

: I think the big ball has to at least be touching the goal.
