Re: [FTC]: Issue in Get Over It! Rules?

Another interesting rule to have Q&A clarify once it is open for posts:

<SG8> Robots may not intentionally lift, grasp or hold any of the Rolling Goals at any time except during the End Game. Rolling Goals may only be pushed around the field or over the Bridges, Cliffs or Mountain. Violations of this rule will result in a penalty for the team.

It sounds kind of humorous where a bot can push a rolling goal over a cliff! That of course is in direct violation of rule <SG9> where you cannot intentionally tip over a rolling goal. I don't know how a bot can push a rolling goal over the mountain or a cliff without this happening.

Looks like pushing a rolling goal is unavoidable due to where their starting positions are on the field.
