Rules violations spotted on webcasts
I've been hopping between a few feeds today and I'm seeing quite a few violations on the field...
- One spy had powered signaling devices (gloves with blinky lights) that he turned off after the match
- A robot that starts it's climb by jacking up the back of it's frame by a foot to get the right angle to the bar (R22)
- Various and sundry team members crossing defenses during match reset that don't get caught
- A fair number of illegal bumper numbers (Blue on Blue background?) (R28)
- Major structural failure of robot causing bumpers to be dragging, but not DISABLED (R19-1)
Be careful out there teams, and notify your alliance partners if you see a violation, even if they get away with it. This is not a request for tattling, but more of a GP request to make sure the playing field is fair and safe. Future alliance partners will thank you.
