<SC7>
Scoring of the Autonomous Bonus is evaluated immediately after the Autonomous Period ends.• Scoring methods that rely on Robots’ end-of-Match positioning in the Midfield (e.g., Robots ending in the Midfield and Ownership of yellow Pins in the Midfield) are not included in Autonomous Period scoring calculations.
• If the Autonomous Period ends in a tie, including a zero-to-zero tie, each Alliance will receive an Autonomous Bonus of six (6) points.
• Any Violations, Major or Minor, committed during the Autonomous Period will result in the Autonomous Bonus being automatically awarded to the opposing Alliance. See <GG13>.
• Per rule <GG13>, if both Alliances commit Violations during the Autonomous Period, then no Autonomous Bonus will be awarded. This rule is applied differently for VEX U. See Rule <VUG5>.
