Agreed, I'm surprised that the issues of Waterloo SF 1-3 weren't addressed. I was at least hoping to see a modification to G14 in this update. How can I -unintentional or not - cause another alliance to incur more penalty points than I receive for damaging them? I can't see the sense behind allowing these situations to occur any further.
What's to stop a team from "accidentally" breaking something off an opposing robot in any given match? If it's going to give them a net gain in points then nothing but goodwill and the inability to actually make it look "accidental" is what's stopping them. Obviously it's not the ethical thing to do but it shouldn't even be an option if you ask me.
