Round 3 - Was that 148 out there? What happened with them?

What was said in the ref meeting about when and how this applied? Just to placing the ball on the Overpass, or to all balls? And what about the end of Hybrid?

I don't understand the new ball rule either. During on of our matches. The head ref didn't count one of the balls placed on the overpass and we have no idea why. The robot had dropped it, and it was clearly sitting in place when the buzzer rang. I couldn't tell if the robot was touching the ball or not. Does this matter?


I think the St. Louis regional is going very well!! We hope to see some great competition in the finals!

However, is anyone having trouble with their IR? We were having the biggest problems during our first matches yesterday and today, and we think that it was because of the stadium lights. We placed some sandpaper above our IR sensor and now it works great! We can knock the ball off the overpass during hybrid, which is what we originally planned!
