Re: "Painting" on the field

Just to add to the discussion a bit, some carpet damage over the course of a regional from robots tipping, hard defense, etc... I don't think I've ever been to an event where the carpet didn't have a scrape or ten on it by the end of eliminations.

But, if the Damage is ruled as intentional, or due to the design of your robot you probably will not pass inspection or you will be carded sometime during your event. I'd say that leaving skid marks on the carpet under normal conditions is illegal.
