That was not our experience at Hartford. When I asked the referee if he or I could adjust the position of an obviously misaligned tote for our autonomous mode, he refused.

If we're following the word for word rules for the manual, there's nothing that says the field reset crew can't place the tote upside down on top of the recycling can either.

Personally, I don't think it's really right for the field reset crew to have the power to decide the success or failure of autonomous, which is true under the current rules.
