Re: Is it okay to "throw" a match that will be replayed?

A clarification-
Yes, we plan on playing defense at the championship. I guess the words "park our robot in the corner" weren't exactly what I was looking for. We're really only worried about the shooter. In the previous match, we were up by about 30 points, and none of the opposing robots could manipulate the ball, so defense wouldn't have given us anything.

We do plan on sharing this strategy with our alliance, and we'd only do it if they agreed there is a field fault. Pretty much the only field faults we'd go for are the teleop in auto bug, and a really long (like a minute long) pedestal delay.

While it is a good way to show that there's a fault, we're not trying to do this to draw attention to the issue, we're trying to preserve our robot.

EDIT-- Yes, they knew the issue had happened, and they stopped scoring. I believe they needed to finish the match in order to get FMS logs, but neglected to tell teams that they were playing for nothing.
