Re: What does a defense robot NEED?

I think I'm going to see if I can Q&A what they mean by inconsequential in this rule. I've been trying to use my best judgement, and still struggling with it. My gut tells me that if you're playing defense on a robot underneath the pyramid (one that is not touching the pyramid) and you hit the pyramid, that would be a consequential contact, as something that you're doing at the time had a consequence on the outcome of the match.

On a slightly related note, if I have a Q&A account, how do I submit a question, do I need permission from my team or something?
