I am concerned about many of these tall robots and I expect to see a lot of rebuilds done before DCMP's/CMP.
Touching the outerworks is the safe zone that we we designed for specifically (as well as the extended shooter to remove the possibility of getting blocked in that spot). In the 2 QFs we got 25 penalty points in that spot (and still made the shots). The refs at CVR were good about calling that foul.
