Re: FRC Q&A Forums Opens Wed Jan 13

I would also suggest compiling a list of questions to ask Q&A from what is here on CD. This is as good a place as any... (I won't have access to ask questions.)
  1. From Section 9.3.5 and 9.3.7, it appears that the Coopertition Bonus is included with the seeding points in the seeding score. Is this accurate?
  2. From <G44>, if a robot has a top shield that is shaped to direct the ball downwards in a certain way, or otherwise specifically affect the velocity of the ball in either speed or direction, will the robot be counted as carrying if a ball does hit said top shield during a match? 2a) Specifically, if a team should put a chute on top of their robot to guide the ball, and stop moving when a ball hits the chute so that the ball is in motion relative to the robot, is this counted as possession, and therefore, carrying?
  3. From <G45>, if a robot has a mechanism above the bumper zone that is movable during a match, but does not move it when it is hit by a ball, is the mechanism considered an active mechanism?
