Re: Picking up the ball

Keep in mind G10. If you are lowering the ball and carrying it across your own finish line, it won't give you any points. It's pretty easy to get around that problem, though.

Quote:

<G10> Each TRACKBALL that has CROSSED its own FINISH LINE while not in contact with a ROBOT of the same ALLIANCE will earn 2 points. A TRACKBALL that has CROSSED its own FINISH LINE which contacts ROBOTS of both ALLIANCES while CROSSING will earn 2 points.

If this is your opponent's side, then with the demise of G36, I see no potential problems.
