Hi Steve,

Just to clarify on the junk penalty issue:

1. If we do not interrupt a robot, and it fails to come back to the safety at the end of the match, will they be penalty?

2. You mentioned that the referee can put the penalty anywhere on the mat, are there any rules guiding where he or she would put it? So it is up to luck whether the penalty is put at a place that makes some missions impossible according to pre-set programs?

Thanks!

Chao

 There is
 no Junk Penalty on a mission Model like the white Plastic
 Bags.  Mission Models may be stranded anywhere out in the
 field with no Penalty.
 The
 Interruption and Junk Penalties are assessed by taking one
 of the referee's Black Bars and placing it on the mat. 
 The point value for that is determined by mission M04.  The
 score for each penalty Black Bar is -8.  (As others have
 noted, this results in a net change of -16 in the score,
 since the bar would have been worth +8 before the
 Penalty,)

 All,        I didn't
 see Robot Interruption and Junk penalty points anywhere
 mentioned.
 How many points are charged for each robot
 interruption if it is stranded outside the safety area while
 running and how many points for something such as leaving a
 plastic bag or something outside the safety area after end
 of mission
 ? Thanks,Shashi
