Re: game of 2 on 0, who won
In Waterloo there was a qualifying match that was a 1 on 1. One robot fell over during hybrid mode, making the match a 1 v 0. The fallen robot violated G22, resulting in a 10 point penalty. Despite all this, the alliance with no moving robots almost won the match, losing 20-14. If the fallen robot had not taken that penalty, they would have won 24-20. In fact the only saving grace of the winning alliance was that they failed to remove their second trackball from the overpass, despite multiple attempts. This was by far the strangest match I have ever seen.
