One yellow given at the Arizona regional during qual match.
I remember a yellow being given out at New Jersey for aggressive driving.
There was also one given out at UTC, but since it was our last round of qualifications, the flag was not given to us.
Yeah, I’ll verify that. We were the recipients of the only red card at Lone Star Regional, in round 4 of our semifinal match.

Two were given out at Davis. One during to 1662, and another during Elims. I don’t remember who got the one during elims, but I do remember that the ref never bothered to give them the flag because they got eliminated in that match.
There was at least 1 yellow flag at VCU way back in the first week
AFAIK neither were ever issued at Bayou.
In the very last round of the finals at Davis, I saw the ref throw a yellow card for an overly agressive team (trying to tip robots) and then he threw a blue one. Does anybody know what that’s about?
I believe the blue flag was a 10 point penalty for more overly aggressive driving after the yellow card. Although they never really did say, seeing as everyone was celebrating and it did not change the match outcome 
414 for excessive violence
122 for deployment of ramps outside homezone
A red flag was issued during the second match of the finals to 2108’s alliance.
A yellow card for a 72x72 violation? Could you explain that one please?
It was for repeated violation of the 72 inch rule over the course of several matches.
Repeated and intentional/obvious? or repeated small violations?
St. Louis and Detroit were card-free, as far as I know. Didn’t really see any excessive reasons for them either, other than the rough defense at Detroit (which can be blamed on the nature of the game / robots designed for it if you want to).
For their first 3-4 matches (until the card came out I believe), the robot drove out from the home zone, and within the first seconds, the ramps deployed. After deploying at midfield, the robot would have to race back to the home zone. The yellow card was given because it was an obvious violation repeatedly occurring. It was definitely not intentional, but it was something that shouldn’t have continued.
No, Actually we only recieved 1 and that was during the quaterfinals. I believe that it was for over agressive driving.
250 received one yellow flag- it was the first match of the quarterfinals. We were given the flag because we played defense with our claw out (it broke during the match and became stuck in the out position). It was the right call for referees to make. However, a word to drivers who plan to play defense with a broken claw: if you have a wooden claw and you keep running it into a robot made of steel and aluminum, don’t expect it to be intact after the match.
I believe they hand out the flags before the robots go out on the field. They usually have the robots queued for 2 matches, meaning that there can be 18 yellow flags out at one time:ahh:
Thanks for clarifying that.

Qualifiers : 0 red 1 yellow
Elims : 0 red 1 yellow
Actually 1930 and 1567 both had a yellow card by the end of qualifying. I don’t remember the reason for either card being assessed.
