At the very least, that means that your robot needs to dance around a bit during the autonomous period. If it just sits there, it's gonna get loaded with moon rocks!

You're right about <G40>, but in past years (I know, I know they don't apply), that's been illegal.

Then again, the veterans have to unlearn everything they know this year. I'm going to bet that somebody asks Q&A and the GDC confirms that it's legal.

Speaking of M.S.'s at the outposts, how far are we allowed to extend our hand through the port? Not at all? I remember in '07 how there were penalties if your hand extended over the wall, but when the MS is sitting alongside the field and putting balls through the port, I would expect that hands will break the plane of the barrier. I didn't see anything specifically about it in the rules... any ideas?

So you want to make sure everyone on your alliance has at least something for auto or they'll be a siting duck. Should help promote auto modes.
