One thing you can be sure about is when you go to the competition the rules will change.

At KSC there were ruling that was completly wrong the team that had the problem had to go back and get the rule that was in the rule book and shown the judge just to have the correct call.

If you get DQ you must of done something totaly wrong. We drag Heat wave and ripped a foot and a half of the rug and they were never turned off.

We got tangle in a robot tether and that robot was never DQ even when the judge try to shut off the other robot.

the only DQ I saw at KSC was when a mentor touch the controls.

other than that all was fair game.


The best one was when we drag a goal over the mouse and tether nothing was done about it.

One team was warned becuase they hit the goal so hard that there robot ride up on top of the wood and hit the tape that was around the edge of the wood.

there were teams that used the bottom of the top wood to raise the goal up.
