Pitsco does not have the authority to say whether something is legal. They might be right, but until it's published by FIRST (in e.g. Bill's Blog, a Team Update, and/or a revision to the Game Manual) it is not official information.

True, and I expect that it will in tomorrow's update or the next Bill's Blog. I wasn't really worried about whether or not Pitsco should say that. I hope nobody else was either.

Reports were that the batteries were in VERY short supply. But that's the way of the system--come to Kickoff guns blazing.

I should have chosen faster shipping.
Realistically we don't need it any sooner, but psychologically it's like waiting for a birthday present...
