Re: Ungracious and unprofessional...

I also think that people need to realize that during a match, people are playing to win. If their intention is otherwise, it's visible to everyone else and they will be remembered for their malicious intent. But most of the time, it's just a game. And when people build robots with 12" wheels and try climbing 6" platforms, tipping needs to be expected. Your robot is only as good as you design it to be. I figure that when I am driving in Canada in 10 days, I will either tip or be tipped at least once. And I won't feel too bad about it unless that other teams starts ramming me while I'm on the ground. And hopefully that other team that I tip won't think that I love seeing other team's robots fall and possibly damage itself. It's like any sport - expect some injuries, but try not to be dissuaded from your goals by such petty incidents.
