Re: YMTC: Bluateam Buys Redateam's 2009 Discounted Controller
Ah, I'll take a better look then.
So there are these credits at work:
BLUE 09 RED 09
BLUE 10 RED 10
Blue's used their 09 credit.
XXXX XX RED 09
BLUE 10 RED 10
So they'd buy Red 09's cRIO in exchange for getting the Red 10 cRio. This is different than what I thought, where Blue would use their Blue 10 slot and give it to Red or something like that, so both teams would end up with one burnt credit and one additional cRio.
I can see the issue here. I don't really know what to say about it, it's clever and within the rules but it is taking advantage of NI and circumventing a discount restriction. Couldn't that be fraud or something?
