Andy: Mark, it's ok that we split the scoring table and video production table so that teams can exit the field in from the middle zone, right?

Mark: No, there is no middle zone gate on that side of the field. Teams just need to leave the field through the closest gate to them.

Andy: Teams can't leave the field on the same side that they entered. That would be baaaad, right?

Mark: That would require teams to push robots over bumps. I can't get a 6 minute cycle if robots are being pushed over bumps.

Andy: Hmmm... what if they pushed the robots over the bumps quickly?

Mark: No

Andy: So, what should we do?

Mark: Teams need to be able to leave the field whichever side they choose, but if they can leave on the scorer's table side, that is preferred.

Andy: OK

So, to answer your question, Ed, you que-ers will just need to follow Mark's lead on this.

It's gonna be organized chaos all day long.
