Quote: Any robot that deliberately attacks the link would be disqualified,

Although agreeing with most of Rogers veiws, this is a daft statement!

How the hell would you judge this?

Is a bots link at the back?..ours is, but is everybodys?..is there a rule outlawing links at the sides or even the front?

Do you have to go round all your opponents, pre match, finding out where their links are so you cant attack that bit?

No...fights happen...you go for it, and try to win. Granted you DO NOT annialate a disabled robot (at RW yes but not live events) but to judge on an opponenent deliberately attacking the link is impossible, in the heat of a fight..Your disk went straight in and ripped out my link I can hear some teams crying!....wish driving was that precise!!

Links flying out are usually bad design or bad luck!!!
