Re: YMTC: Redabot Scores 30 Bonus Points?

Ok, just finished reading this thread, I started at 2:45 and it is now 3:40 EST. I truly hate to say this but I agree with Cody and T. Hoffman. I hate going against Mr. Lavery, being on the GDC, but the rule was not stated to put the red team behind. The rule about lifting is read from the perspective of the lifted bot, the one at X height, therefore, the fact that a part of the other bot fell onto a game piece is irrelevant, the redabots take home the score. If I was one the blue alliance, I would also refuse the trophy. My team doesn't need to resort to rule twisting to win, I believe it would be against the GP-ocity of the event.
The red alliance won. Several ringers come in to contact with bots at VCU but they were not called like this. The judges knew that the ringers had no structural support of the elevated bots, as the judges at Magnolia should, redabot is in magnolia right? If they removed the incriminating ringer, the raised bot would not move the slightest.

The cookies in red are pretty good but nothing compares to the furniture in the red lounge. Mmmmmm, lay-z-boys...

Darn, I got into this for the battles!
