If the other team wins a match because;

1) the GDC announces absent robot = no trailer (which I doubt).
2) Teams then exploit this and field no robots.

They didn't win anything. Well, maybe something, the eternal loss of respect from anyone in the FIRST community who's opinion matters.

How could anyone be happy to win a robotics competition in which they never fielded a robot.

Some people are ridiculous.
