Mad respect to the judge counting expansion tiles; a similar moment occurred during a qualification match of the GA MS states and it took the judges quite a long time to sort it all out!
The entanglement of the Blue Alliance control wire with the Red Robot is a tough call. Team members should not be reaching into the field. Rule Hands out of the field. Drive Team Members are prohibited from making intentional contact with any Discs, Field Elements, or Robots during a Match. The rule also states that the contact can not be "Transitive." The cable breaking the plane of the field could be considered a violation of rule G9. The referees could have allowed the Red team to work their way out of the cable solely through robot interactions. Then ruled at the end of the match if it was a Major Violation for the Blue Alliance, which can lead to disqualification, which in a finals match means disqualifying the entire alliance. This is a tough call during a match when everything is happening so fast.
@@sadie238 I mention those 3 cause I feel like all there teams are decent, yeah sure your R and X teams are the highlight all the time but your P team still can shoot and has a code and can defend, like you don't know some of your teams as well but if you see a 7316, 11124, or 2011 as your alliance, you know the match will be probably fine
You are correct, team members should not be reaching into the field. Rule Hands out of the field. Drive Team Members are prohibited from making intentional contact with any Discs, Field Elements, or Robots during a Match. The rule also states that the contact cannot be "Transitive."
SG5 states: Vertical expansion is limited. Robots may expand vertically within the following conditions: a. The Robot must not be contacting the gray field tiles in either Low Goal. b. No part of the Robot may exceed an overall height of 24”. This height limit is a “virtual ceiling,” meaning that no part of any Robot may ever exceed 24” above the foam tiles, regardless of Robot orientation. c. Any extensions or combinations of extensions above 18” must fit within a vertical cylinder 2” in diameter.
So during the last 10 seconds of the 2 minute robotics match the robots can expand and they get 3 points for every one of the 28 foam field tiles that they are touching. The strings are the best way for now to touch as many tiles as possible.

The refs: 🗿
Indiana: the place where you can get worlds class matches at a regional
When you want to get out of a comp fast but the matches take half an hour to score
Indiana insane region.
It’s great being so competitive
Theres something in that corn

me, *From an FTC team* WTF THEY CAN JUST REACH OVER THE FIELD WALLS AND TOUCH THE ROBOT
also how does one get a controller cable caught in a robot?
I mean, you're not really supposed to. It's typically up to the ref's discretion if something gets caught or falls into the arena

good robots, but you guys haven made the finals with a robot held together by zipties
For all flywheels, insane basket loading
wow that endgame was insane
What was the score
I thought you couldn’t shoot from within the tape

so yes they cant expand vertically but they can expand horizontally BUT if the string expansions expand upward then they are DQed (they lose)
This is a refs worst nightmare
can someone explain the ropes to me i don’t do vex

@@robokauz can you please possibly do a tutorial for the end game!!! I’ll subscribe 😊
