I suppose you know how 469 works then? I suppose you also know the rules too?

Extending beyond the size limits is NOT a 1 point penalty it is a yellow card. 469 gets away with it because you are allowed to extend when in contact with your own tower. Additionally, 469 gets the ball nearly immediately off the return. The only way for you to touch the ball before them would be to grab near the ball return chute. A red card... So, you are still the "only one who can beat 469" eh? Sounds like a good way of getting DQ'd to me.
I'm sorry I misspoke. Yellow Card NOT penalty. But a yellow card does not get you DQ'd, not does it lose you a point. And as far as being able to block them, there far enough under the ball return that our arm can be right over their catcher and deflect them away without touching the ball return, therefore NOT resulting in a DQ. And I never said taht we were the only ones that could beat 469. I said we were the only ones that could block them (meaning their ball return actions).

Don't question whether I know the rules or not, you just have to think about what exactly each rule will then mean to the action your robot makes.
