Team 100 Progress...

[Pendulum^-1]

Very impressive rig.

However....is it executing a valid climb in the video? I ask this because I suspect that it is not. First, the climber is shown touching Level 0 (the ground), Level 1, and Level 2, simultaneously. Later, at about the 15 second point, it is shown touching Level 1, Level 2, and Level 3 simultaneously.

I say valid, not illegal, because these actions would simply invalidate a climb (resulting in zero climb points), and not result in penalty points. I suspect your dumping the 20 points into to the top goal would still be valid.

I strongly suggest that you review Rule 3.1.5.2, CLIMB Points, especially the "B" sentence.

"A ROBOT has CLIMBED its PYRAMID if it contacts the PYRAMID and/or the floor (Level 0) in

A.sequential order (Level 0, 1, 2, 3) during ascent and
B.no more than two (2) Levels simultaneously.

If a CLIMB is considered unacceptable (e.g. a ROBOT has touched non-adjacent Levels or more than two (2) Levels at a time), a Referee will indicate a rejected CLIMB by turning the offending ROBOT’S PLAYER STATION LED strings yellow. The ROBOT will be ineligible for CLIMB points unless and until it begins a new CLIMB from the floor, Level 0. "

Sorry if I am raining on your parade. Hopefully, others here can either confirm or contradict my observation.
