We have a send home device and, believe it or not, I agree with you Matt!! I don't want any special treatment for the device or its tether for that matter. I think that its part of the robot and should be treated as such. If it's not robust enough, well... that's life and you'll be sure to improve upon that design next time.

What I do hope though, is that the judges are equally easy going when it comes to the tangling issue. Scenario: team "A" has a dual extensions designed to grab three goals (moe) for example, if I get hung up on it, well it's too bad for me--there are no provisions for that. And he is dividing up the field as well. Now, I send home my Jerry mouse (Tom & Jerry) and "A" 's partner gets hung up on my tether. I'm DQ'd and "A" isn't. Would that be fair? We're still talking about extensions of a robot in both cases.

Food for thought.
