Answered: <G11> Definition/Clarification

[NissanskylineN1]

The rules state:

Strategies aimed solely at the destruction, damage, tipping over, or Entanglement of Robots are
not part of the ethos of the VEX Robotics Competition and are not allowed. However, VEX Toss Up is an
interactive game. Some incidental tipping, Entanglement, and damage may occur as a part of normal
game play. If the tipping, Entanglement, or damage is ruled to be intentional or egregious, the offending
team may be disqualified from that Match. Repeated offenses could result in a team being Disqualified
from the remainder of the competition.

What exactly are the definitions of destruction and damage in detail, as intended by the rules? Is the accidental disconnection of a Vexnet punishable by this rule?

It would be difficult to provide an exact definition with encompassing examples, however using the dictionary definitions of these words should give you an idea of what we’re looking for.

The accidental disconnection of a VEXnet key would definitely not fall under <G11>. The intentional removal of an opponents VEXnet key would fall under <G11>.
