I read through the manual but im not sure where it says how you can get rid of points by flipping the mobile goal.
Prior to Version 2.0 (the current version of the game manual as of 9/26) rings that were on mobile goals but were contacting the foam tiles could not be scored for points. However, Version 2.0 changed SC3 such that rings can still be scored even if they are contacting the floor. Therefore, flipping mobile goals can no longer descore rings, including for VEXU, which is what this topic has been posted under.

Yes, it is no longer considered descored when touching a foam tile.
But of course, this rule is now removed from the manual as of version 2.0.

idk what a topic is but im In vex v5
Its that time of year again: the start of a new season. Consequently, many new people are joining robotics clubs across the world and thus vex forum. This is great, as the goal for RECF is to have as many students involved in robotics as possible. We welcome new users into the community, but there a couple of things you need to know.
Don’t ask people for robot ideas. There are lots of threads that already discuss this. You can find these with the search bar. You can also give YouTube a search too. Plenty of robots have been revealed and there have been a few explanation videos so far this season as well.
Don’t ask whether or not something is legal. There have been so many posts about this recently. The game manual tells you everything you can’t do. I doesn’t tell you everything you can do. If you can’t find a rule, use the search feature in the manual. cntrl F is your friend. Give it a read: VRC Over Under Game Manual - VEX Robotics If you have a question about a rule, quote the applicable rule in your question so others know you aren’t an idiot. There is a difference between asking about an edge case scenario and if you’re allowed to build a claw.
Think before you post. I have seen new users post blatantly incorrect information on the forum. Don’t just post what you think cause your friend Bob told you it is true. Try and find the source for what information you are giving (and maybe you’ll actually learn something new while your at it). And if you do realize something you said is wrong, delete your post. All you’re doing is hurting new users like yourself.
The forum isn’t discord. Use a spell check. Don’t post the same thing multiple times and don’t post something if it isn’t relevant to the discussion. Use the search bar, and see if your question has already been asked. Make sure your post is in the appropriate category.
Give the community guidelines a read. They go into more detail about what you can and can’t do on the forum: https://www.vexforum.com/faq
I made a similar post to this last year, but obviously there are new people here. And it has been locked for, reasons.

tl;dr: Read the manual. Use the search bar. Make sure what you’re posting is true. Don’t ask people for robot ideas.
As a new user, this post helped a ton to learn to use the vex fourm well.
