Re: Hight score of the season

[quote=Lil' Lavery;936522]The ramp is a mechanism, but the ball never more than within 3" of it, so therefor it is not a penalty. Per the last sentence of the Q&A you quoted:


That is like saying if you build a high enough robot where the ball does not touch it when it drives over the ball there is no penalty. Its still a 3 inch violation. But even if i am wrong which i left my self to be corrected because there was no clear video of how the robot works I think it breaks the spirit of the rule. My biggest problem with this robot is they wedge themselves under the tower and use a rule meant for hanging to accomplish this task. Its clear they are not trying to hang early.
