3315: Who and When can stand in Alliance Station
Which of these Condition didn't violate the game manual?:
There are team A & team B for red alliance.
- 4 people from team A and 2 people from team B stand in red alliance station during the Head-to-Head Match.
- Team B's robot can't pass inspection, so there are 6 people from team A and 0 people from team B stand in red alliance station during the Head-to-Head Match.
- There are 7 people from team A & team B stand in red alliance station before 15 sec Autonomous Period.
- There are 7 people from team A & team B stand in red alliance station after 105 sec Driver Controlled Period.
- There are 7 people from team A & team B stand in red alliance station after Head Referee made all the decision and said clear the field.
What is the area of the Alliance Station?
Is the definition of the Head-to-Head Match: "15 sec Autonomous Period & 105 sec Driver Controlled Period?"
All five scenarios represent violations of <GG1>, which states:
A Team may send up to (3) Drive Team Members to their Alliance Station for each Robot, and those Drive Team Members must remain in their Alliance Station for the duration of the Match.
In a standard V5RC Head-to-Head Match, each Team has 1 Robot, which means each Team can bring a maximum of 3 Drive Team Members to the Field to stand in the Alliance Station. For example, Team A can never have more than 3 people in the Alliance Station, regardless of how many people (0, 1, 2, or 3) Team B has in the Alliance Station.
The Alliance Station is simply the area within the Alliance Station tape lines. There are no exact dimensions for these Alliance Stations, since Event Partners are allowed to adjust the size/position of the Alliance Station tape lines per <T6>.
Under the definition of "Match" in the Game Manual, you will see that Head-to-Head Matches consist of a fifteen (0:15) second Autonomous Period followed by a one minute and forty-five second (1:45) Driver Controlled Period.
