Dead means you cannot use the piece anymore. As in during Teleoperated mode when placing an ubertube on a pin would result in a penalty.

I have a question. If you robot happens to be placing an ubertube on a pin right as the buzzer goes off and ends autonomous period but your robot finishes placing the ubertube on the pin just after the buzzer goes off then do you get a penalty?

Sounds like a great entry for the official Q&A when it opens. Keep in mind any answer here would be merely speculative unless linked to an official source.

Talking Re: Unplaced ubertubes

if you put all three ubertubes on the same level 3 pegs and then create the logo over it would you get more points then you would if you separated them and then created a logo over just one ubertube of the three pegs? (sorry if it dont make sense)

Yes, you would. You'd get the doubled value for each peg instead of just one.

But you have to place them autonomously.
