Re: 2005 FRC Team Update 13

many people aren't reading this correctly the major problem is this...
you can be all the way to the wall at the loading zone... and not be in the loading zone(because you aren't physically touching the triangle).. it doesn't make sense.. People would interpret this rule to mean ''clearly be in the loading zone and you will be fine''. But as of right now one can not do that because FIRST has been very straight foward in saying you MUST be touching the surface.(so right now you can go to the boilermaker regional and possibly get penalized over and over... then go to peachtree and not be [depending on how interested the refs are int he rule]) The referees dont' have time to look for this, and the way FIRST has suggested to solve the problem doesn't make it any safer for the field crews.
I think a good way to solve this problem would be " Once a team has stopped over the loading zone, and begin to deploy their arm to pick up a tetra - they may not be touched"
But then I personally believe that there should be interference at the auto- loading zones - and the field attendednts should use common sense when replenishing the supply.
Human player zone positive -- can't be touched negative - takes more time
Auto loading zone positive -- takes less time -- can be touched
