Re: Unplaced ubertubes

At Peachtree in 2007, occasionally a keeper was "in danger of scoring" (i.e. on the spider-leg, but not fully supported by it) at the end of autonomous. When this happened, the head ref would stop the game, walk out onto the field, free the keeper from the robot's arm (popping it if needed), walk off the field, and then start teleoperated. This was not done if the keeper was not "in danger of scoring". I don't know if the refs will do that this year.
