Answered: Definition of "in/on" in <SG9> and<SG13>

[AlecMiller]

<SG9> Robots may not interfere with an opposing Alliance’s Building of Skyrise Sections in any way. The
following actions are all illegal.

…

f) Depositing Scoring Objects in/on the opponent’s foam field tiles mentioned in c) or on Robots
or Scoring Objects touching said tiles.

<SG13> Robots may not deposit their opponent’s Cubes in/on their own Alliance Starting Tiles or the grey
foam field tile between the two Alliance Starting Tiles and located in the corner of the field, or on Robots
or Scoring Objects touching said tiles. The intent of this rule is to prevent intentional strategies to
permanently isolate the opponent’s Cubes in the protected area. Accidental moving of Cubes into this
area is expected. Minor violations of this rule that do not affect the match will result in a warning.
Egregious (match affecting) offenses will result in a Disqualification. Teams that receive multiple warnings
may also receive a Disqualification at the head referee’s discretion.

Both rules mention cubes in/on a tile. The meaning of on is clear, if the bottom of the cube is touching the foam tile it is on the foam tile. However, I am not sure what is meant by a cube being “in” a field tile. In these rules, what is meant by in a field tile?

For the purposes of this rule, “in” refers to Cubes that on top of other Cubes that are “on” a tile.

OK, makes sense. Thanks, Karthik!
