Curie Division Qualification Match 20

[jvriezen]

I've never officially worked field reset, but I've been close enough to the field many times (Lunacy scorer, FTAA, Inspector, queuing) that I've occasionally closed a gate now and then, or reset it mid match when there are no bots around (at 10K I was much taller than the field reset/queuer and could reach further into the field.)

Prior to reading about the velcro on this thread and the North Star situation, I never even realized there was velcro, and only in this thread did I hear there was velcro at the bottom of the panel. I've never paid enough attention to realize it is there. Also, in watching the regular crew open and close the gates, I've never noticed any overt action to secure (or release) the velcro--- it has always looked to me that the hooks and gravity is the only thing keeping it in place.

I wonder how this is handled in field reset 'training'? Or is it expected the velcro will bite just due to gravity/weight?
