Immobilized Robot Rule
I haven"t been too thorough in my reading of the rule book, but I didn"t notice a rule this year about an immobilized robot like the one last year where if you immobilize an opposing robot for more than 10 seconds you get DQ"ed.
If this rule does exist this year, it could lead to some really nasty robots with the same dimensions as a crate that would exist only to get themselves stuck inside another robot"s crate stacking mechanism. In this case, the nasty robot would be "immobilized" by the other robot and thus force them to be DQ"ed. If this robot always went up against a team that it could use in this way, they would always win. Could a robot pull this off? Or would they be disqualified for immobilizing themself? Or would everyone just hate them? |
