Suction as a method for possessing balls
I did a quick search for suction-related topics and didn't see anything, so here I go.
According to the rules possession is "Controlling the position and movement of a BALL." G43 allows robots to be in possession of 1 ball as long as G44-46 are not violated. G44 ensures that the ball must be touching the ground. G45 restricts mechanisms above the bumper zone. G46 allows balls to extend 3" into the frame perimeter. I see no restriction then on using suction (or some other holding device) to provide a firm grip on the ball. Thoughts?
