Re: Ramp Scoring, At 00:00 or After?

For Question #1, "at the end of the match" and "after the end of the match" are two very different things. The rule is worded "at." Also, I see no mention of "remaining" on the ramp "after" the match. Perahps these couple words were inadvertantly left out of the language of the rule. Common sense tells me that is the case and a robot that rolls back down will not be scored (going by the "scoring is done after all objects are at rest" type of rule from previous years). But, this does seem like a good Q/A question because it could change the drive system a lot if a robot is scored AT the end of the match versus being scored AFTER the end of the match.
