Re: Finale Blocking Strategy

Thanks to all for their comments. This discussion is exactly what this forum should be about. I will indeed see that this gets posted to the Q & A. A few other points to consider:

Bluebot pushing red bot in any fashion which results in redbot contacting the tower means bluebot caused the tower contact. Think of a charging foul in basketball. Whoever establishes their position first should (keyword should)get the call.

If redbot establishes position first, then blue bot will not only have to reach 7 ft in the air but 2 to 3 feet across redbot with their grabbing mechanism.

Bluebot will also have to get over redbot without being on redbot.
