That is exactly what he said. For king of the hill points, the only color that matters is the platform color.

Now that we have THAT settled....

Re: an evil, desperate, ramp strategy

yeah it would probably cause serious damage, and of course if any team causes another team damage during the match the least they could do is offer a helping hand

I just wonder if giving them that "nudge" that will tip them over would be considered ramming

and yeha I know it isn't very GP (allthough as wetzel said, it's defense), but as I said a DESEPRATE and EVIL strategy =)

and hey if im on they ramp and I knocked down 3 others I earned my share EVEN if I don't get off of it at the end of the match

I can't remember where or when, but I was a ref in a match where the following occurred. REDABOT was hit legally by BLUEABOT. REDABOT was teetering, and BLUEABOT backed up, drove forward again slowly, then gave REDABOT a "nudge" with caused them to tip over. BLUEABOT was DQ'ed.
