A racing game this year!

yay! this is cool! and fun! Hopefully not like cool and fun like this!! (links to the website of a free racing game... with various weapons on the cars)

but seriously... about the "gentle bumping..."(EVERYone at the kickoff we were at Laughed for a nice little while after hearing this...) from the game animation and manuel... to "ask" robots to move out of the way...

and on a side note... how are the judges going to judge this... or really... can we students take the online certification cource that refs are going to take... just to make sure we understand the rules right.

I hope everyone can take this online course as it would be a great rule-learning tool.

Re: A racing game this year!

Well first off as you know judges must be trained in what qualifies as a bump. You give a "Gentle" bump as a horn to tell them you want to pass.

I also bet that they will upload a new manual with what qualifies as a bump. Too many people have no idea of what every rule means.
