Minibot's triggering targets?

[Kevin Sevcik]

That's what I'm wondering as well. My completely ancedotal and likely biased evidence is that it was mostly lightweight bots at Alamo that were failing to trigger towers. I can only trust that correct calls were being made per the rules as written, but I'm doubting refs can or are capable of visually judging the force exerted by the minibot on the plate.

What I am certain of is that the current lack of information can only lead to confusion and hurt feelings. When a team loses an important match due to a "phantom" minibot deployment, they're going to be rather annoyed. If someone from the gdc or elsewhere could clear this up it'd save a lot of hurt feelings and comparisons to the infamous "tape measure" rule.
