Varying levels of enforcement...

[Elgin Clock]

Also at NYC: Apparently the 10 second, 3 ft pinning rule does not apply to some people! We were holding onto two goals and the other alliance pinned those to the wall. Granted we were not being pushed against ourselves but... The way we release goals is by bumping them out of our way and spinning out of the way. These two robots had us pinned in between the two goals like books in a pair of bookends for at least 30 seconds. I have it all on tape but as the rules state, No referees will review any videos of matches and all refs decisions are final! That had us all angry for a while but hey, what are you going to do right? It's all just water under the bridge.

Note: I probably would not be acting this cool if it happend in the finals and that was the action that made us lose. There would have been a lot more noise made by us if that were the case!
