Thumbs down Carrying Penalty Question
When is the penalty for carrying accounted? Would a robot be able to carry if it scored or dropped the ball before the end of the game?

Re: Carrying Penalty Question
(disclaimer: not an official FIRST answer)

My interpretation is that CARRYING is called as soon as your robot satisfies the definition of CARRYING.

Re: Carrying Penalty Question
The question you should be asking is, "What is the effect of continuous carrying?" That's not specified. Although since a CARRY is a double PENALTY, it never makes logical sense to do so, since you will have no better than a net of -1 in your score.
