<SG11>

Positive corners are protected during the endgame. During the last thirty (30) seconds of a Match, Robots may not contact Mobile Goals that are Placed in the Positive Corners of the Field, may not contact Rings that are Scored on Mobile Goals Placed in the Positive Corners of the Field, and may not Place Mobile Goals or Score Rings in the Positive Corners of the Field. During this protected period, Robots can remove Mobile Goals that are not Placed and Rings that are not Scored from the Positive Corners of the Field, provided that the interaction does not affect the Placed/Scored status of any protected Mobile Goals or Rings.

Violation Notes: Intentional, strategic, or egregious Violations will be considered Major Violations.

Significant Q&As:

2179 - Major Violations don’t have to be Match Affecting

2201 - Guidelines for scenarios where a Robot is pinned in a Corner

2376 - Incidental, inconsequential contact with a protected object probably isn’t a Major Violation

2420 - If the score doesn’t change and the Team doesn’t benefit, it probably isn’t a Major Violation
