Re: Intentionally blocking traffic in Hybrid

Dan,

We agree that it is clear, but just not what is clear.

The rules and updates are official. The rules and updates provide a clear direction that one robot can't possibly impede. The Q & A are irrelevant on a rule that is clear in the manual and update.

When the GDC uses the word block, they seem to throw in "the entire track" or "the flow of traffic." Look at St. Louis finals match 1 where 45 blocked by driving 7 feet and stopping. They clearly did not impede as both robots passed by them just fine.

One robot can't impede unless it is weaving back and forth, which is also specifically called out in the rules.
