Re: Questions on the arena
You are only penalized when you touch an opposing robot in the alley. Same for the keys.

Re: Questions on the arena
This would change our strategy massively. Does anyone have a setup to try it yet?

Re: Questions on the arena
It's not necessarilly a setup needed in my opinion, moreso just the brute force required to do such a thing. And the fact that rule <G33> doesn't clarify whether or not Inbounders can break the vertical plane formed by the Starting Line, or if the rule is only that their feet can't cross it, so that's something to think about. Also keep in mind, the under-publicized "end game", as I consider it, is that in the last 30 seconds, you can throw the ball over the Inbound Station.

Re: Questions on the arena
We had a field set up in NC yesterday and one of the mentors demonstrated a method of throwing the ball through the slots so that it would bounce over the barrier if unimpeded.

Re: Questions on the arena
Past interpretations have been foot faults. In fact, it pretty much has to be that, because the Corral is beyond the Starting Line. You can't have one rule that says the Inbounders must reach across the line, and another that says they can't. But it's something to ask the GDC.

The Basketball in the air, it has been removed from the Corral, it is in the Alliance Station, but it is not being held by an Inbounder. This seems like a violation of [G31]. Of course, by this interpretation, throwing the Basketball into the Inbound Slot would also violate [G31] despite probably being within the intent of the game rules. |

Back to the original question, it is sounding like we can have up to three in-bounders holding 6 basketballs at one time? |

Re: Questions on the arena
Tried! Succeeded. Was able to get one bounce in the near court and the next in the far court on my best try. With nothing but field elements in the way, I was able to get around 75% over the hump. With practice and more youth, I'd predict more like 95% for the best throwers. A variant of a volley ball serve can be made to work too, but I only tried it once.
