Wedge bot DQ
How about some opinions?
We were told that we could not move forward towards another bot with our front (wedge) or face disqualification if the other robot fell over. (Halfway through qualifying). An opponent went over while we were fighting for the top and we were DQed. We had to use other strategies less effective for pushing and hill fighting, hurting our performance. We were subsequently flipped multiple times by other bots who continued pushing after it was apparent we were going over. No DQ was issued to them. (we were able to self right and continue) We are now redesigning our front area for the nats. (no more wedge) Sound like a good call? Did we miss something in the rules? Any other wedge bots get this ruling? Looking forward to your opinions . . . Team 353 Semi finalist, 2003 LI regional
