Re: Pinning? Apparently I just don't seem to understand

It seems to me that one cannot be "pinned" against the front of the ramp... It is an open surface on which a robot can drive- perhaps a team neglected to design their robot with the ability to climb the ramp, but that does not call for a rule-change for their team in such a situation.

If it was against the SIDE of the ramp which creates a clear barrier over which movement is impossible, I would understand the confusion with the rule.

As I understand the situation now, it was clearly possible for a robot to drive up the ramp and avoid being pinned.

I agree with the refs on this one.
