I had the webcasts for Peachtree and DC going for most of the day. I didn't sit and watch every minute, and was away from my desk alot, but the highest score I saw was 9. ... and many many matches had zero/zero's.

The best penalties I saw was when 4 bots (2 red, 2 blue) were playing "king of the mountain" on both sides of a bump/tower. On both sides of the tower there was a red-blue opposing pair, face-to-face. ... each almost climbing the bump, and each almost toppleing the other. It went back and forth a few times on both sides, then the one blue flips it's red, then the other red flips its blue, and they both got penalties for intentional flipping.

Many many occurances of gobbling a ball within the 3 inch rule ... heck, most of these violations had the 'bots completely swallowing the balls under their high wheel-bases.

... and at those 2 regionals, I saw 2 very dependable tower-climbers, a few that were close, and zero SUSPENDED 'bots.
