Re: <G24> Empty Cell Ruling from DC

Every year there is a rule (or two) that could be "worth" intentionally breaking to gain an advantage in scoring.

Despite being legal from a rules perspective, intentionally breaking a rule to gain an advantage goes against the spirit of the game and the whole concept of what FIRST is about.

PS - the reference to the strategy Raul used last year is not the same. There was no rule or penalty for starting with robots stacked - he employed a great strategy for the situation they were in.
