Answered: Rules clarification on robot skills challenge

VEX Robotics Competition Discussion VRC > Previous Games

I’ve been to various competitions, and in some, you could score any color cube for points and ownership of a goal in the Robot Skills Challenge, and in other competitions, you could only score one color. I read the rules, and in the Programming Skills section it states that you are considered the red and the blue team, and can score both colors. I have yet to find a connection between the rules for the two skills challenges.

So, can you score both color cubes during the Robot Skills challenge and skill get points for both? including ownership?

At the Dallas World Championship all Robot Skills Challenge matches will be scored just like normal Elevation matches. The team will receive the “winning” (higher) score as their RSC match score.

It may be beneficial for teams to primarily score for one color and maximize their RSC score.
