Interesting. I know what you mean about the Jive postings as many of them seem to contradict each other. The reason I referenced this particular Jive post is because it seemed so definitive, unlike many of their other responses. I'm just very surprised that FIRST would allow bin placement in the grey area especially when it means touching the robot in there with the bin. If this is allowed, what's to stop a human player from using a bin to push a robot back further into the grey area before setting down their bin right in front of it? I guess I feel like the intent of the rule was to not allow the bins to intrude into the robot's starting area.

Hopefully things will be ironed out WELL before Stang's week 3 regional.
I'm not worried about our team. This "strategy" of bin placement hurts others a lot more than it hurts us. If it is legal, it will actually work out to be an advantage for us.
