Legal way to remove bottles? and other questions

Here are a few questions we came up with today.

Q1: Can a robot contact the BOTTLES in its OWN scoring zone in order to make them NOT COUNT? For example, there is a bottle on one of the GREEN lower scoring zones. If one of the GREEN robots is contacting the bottle at the end of the match, does that bottle count? Is the same true for the movable goal?

Q2: Does the robot have to lift a bottle into or over the "Safety Zone" before the human player can attempt to grab the bottle?

Q3: Can the human player reach INTO the playing field to place a bottle into a robot, or receive a bottle from a robot? This would mean the human player does not contact the "Safety Zone" but can reach past the tube barrier.

Q4: Is there a limit to the number of bottles that may be stored in a Human Player Station?

Q5: Can a movable goal be lifted up on one side so long as the bottles inside do not fall out, and the goal does not fall on its side? The intent would be to lift the goal from beneath the plywood base while towing, for added traction.

Q6: Can a robot have multiple configurations similar to what was allowed for the 2001 FIRST competition? The best example I can think of is Wildstang with their hook/wings/arms.

Q7: The game bottles are allowable projectiles. Does that mean the robot can throw the bottles as well?

Q8: Can one human player throw a bottle to another human player either next to them or across the field?


Thanks for the clarification,

Jason
