Re: Petition: Lower technical foul values to make this game better

I also disagree with the idea of changing the values of penalties. It would be unfair to the teams who've completed their competition season already and would probably change game play strategy. All rules having to do with human safety are good for me too. Our students can get seriously injured in a game like this and should think about their interactions with the field and the robots.

The penalty for possessing or controlling an opponent's ball to me is much like pass interference in football. The opportunity for a clean catch and possession by a robot must be allowed in order for this game to be played the way it was designed. If there was only one ball for both alliances to possess, I would understand the concern.
