Welcome to the official VEX IQ Robotics Competition Question & Answer system, where all registered teams have the opportunity to ask for official rules interpretations and clarifications. This Q&A system is the only source for official VEX IQ rules clarifications, and the clarifications made here from the Game Design Committee (GDC) are considered as official and binding as the written Game Manual itself.

3306: Loader situation when Alliance Parter leaves tournament early
<GG1>This is for GG2 as well.
A team had to leave the tournament early. So every qualifying match they were in now only has 1 team playing on the field.
Based on GG1, they now don't have a loader for their robot. GG11 says what to do if there is only 1 Drive team member. But there is nothing in the rules that state what to do if your alliance partner doesn't show up.
Can you clarify what the one team who did show up to their match is supposed to do for loader?
This rule seems to put the team who did show up at more of a disadvantage than before, hurting their overall score. Why are we penalizing a team who didn't do anything wrong when the other team just left the tournament early?
回答者 committee
Per <GG1>, all Drive Team Members must stand and remain within their Team's assigned Driver Station, which still applies in the absence of the other Team. If a Team is not present for a Teamwork Match, the Load Zone near the absent Team's Driver Station will go unused, other than the Preload placed within for the missing Robot (see <SG5>).
If only one Team is present for a Teamwork Match, they still have the option of driving their Robot to the other Load Zone (adjacent to their own Team's Driver Station), where they can retrieve Bean Bags Loaded by their own Team. Robots are allowed to retrieve Bean Bags from either Load Zone.
2733: GG2 clarification
<<GG2>> A Team’s Robot should attend every Match. The Team’s Robot must report to the Field for the Team’s assigned Match, even if the Robot is not functional.
Can you clarify what is meant by "report" ? Are robots placed just outside the Field or ON the field ?
If it is on the field, I could see this impacting Game Play, and potentially be Match Affecting.
Thank you.

In order for a Team's Robot to report to the Field, the Robot must be either on the Field or in the Alliance Station.
