2014 Catching your own throw

Anyone read anything preventing you from catching your own throw? You won't get the assist points there... but do you get the catching bonus?

Glossary:

CATCH: the event when a BALL SCORED over the TRUSS by a ROBOT’S ALLIANCE partner is POSSESSED by that ROBOT before contacting the carpet or HUMAN PLAYER.

(emphasis mine)

So, if I emphasize it that way... to me it almost says it has to be caught by the alliance partner which threw.

Re: 2014 Catching your own throw

With your emphasis on partner, it all comes down to how partner is defined. Is your robot considered its own alliance partner? Kinda nit-picky, but I'm sure it all boils down to no self catches.
