Re: Are The Penalties Too High?

No. They are not. The reason the penalties are so high is b/c you know F.I.R.S.T. is all about safety which is very very good. The reson is b/c what if a robot is in a human loading zone and a robot hits it. Its going to move. Well they don't wanna take the chance of it hitting the human player and geting him/her hurt. Or for another example something that happened to me. I was pulling out of the human loading zone and a robot slames me in the side and knocks the tetra off almost swinging it into a judge. So I think the penalties are very fare because we don't won't people hurt especially the judges.
