Human players are costing points

As predicted, human players are costing teams LOTS of points at DC regional.

The biggests one is that the Payload specialists on the refuling station are touching the super cells before the 20 sec.end game.

It's not enough to just wait to throw them, they can't even touch them before the last 20 seconds.

Please tell your PS's to WAIT.

Also, there are a lot of PS's that are thowing the Empty cells over the Outpost wall...... BAD.

Many teams are having their 40-50 points reduced to zero, so now is a great time for new and old teams to sit down qith their PS's and go over the 6-7 things that they can do to lose their team points.

Haven't seen a robot penalty yet !!
