You are correct, since the referees' decisions are final and they did not call it either time, lifting another team off of the bar was 'legal'. This does not mean that they properly enforced the rule as stated by FIRST.

I certainly do not want to imply that anyone did anything that they knew was not allowed just to see if they could get away with it. But I do think that the rules, as interpreted by FIRST in update #3, make it clear that lifting another machine off of the bar is not allowed unless the lifting machine is also trying to get on the bar.

'Spirit of the Competition' wise, I don't have a problem with lifting another team off of the bar, but there are a couple of changes that I will try to have made to the Bobcat if lifting is allowed. I will see if I can get a clear ruling from FIRST and the refs at the NE Regional this week. I will post whatever I find out.
