December Design Competition 2014: Tubular Touchdown

It says nothing about breaking the plane of the floor, but that the plane of the base may not intersect the plane of the floor. While I did not add that part to the rule, I believe this was added under the assumption that the plane of the base was limited to the surface area of the base, essentially saying "the base cannot touch the floor", with the intent being that the goals should not fall down or be tipped over.

This question leads to another: when are scores assessed? Are they assessed when the match ends or as events take place? If you knock a tube off the peg (not unlikely by any standard) is it descored?

There are no points awarded to footballs scored in the mobile goals during the autonomous period. Scores are to be assessed at the end of the round per usual, and G7 has been added to the rules to clarify this.
