It happened more then most would like to admit I am affraid. Although I do agree with Amy's post about it not counting against the alliance due to the rule where the opposite alliance caused the infraction.
I actually agree with both of you. The thought of this just happened to cross my mind and i decided to point it out. Our robot isn't made for pushing but out maneuvering. Also i didn't know there was a rule about their not counting due to the fact that the opposing alliance caused the infraction (do you have a rule number, just curious). But yes last year people tried to force loading zone penalties way too much, and i could see the same thing happening this year (except it would be with the backbot not loading zones of course). My guess is in the first few matches the backbots will forget about the rule and accidentally go over the line, but as the competition rolls on it will be remembered quite well, just like HP's being in the box last year.
I do agree that this strategy wouldn't be within the ideas of GP so in the end I wouldn't use it at all. But the more prepared you are for any situation and circumstance the better off you are.
