While we are on the topic of manure…M15 references M09 penalties. What are these penalties? The word “penalty” does not appear under M09.

>> 1.    Does this mean, rest of ten manure samples can be placed anywhere in the base by the team ? 
>> 2.    If the team succeeds in moving all ten manure samples from base and two manure samples located at designated location, one at a time, to training and research area then the team would get 12*5 = 60 points ? and additional 5 Points for having completed M15. Does this mean the team would get 65 points in total ? 
>> 3.    Per M15 penalties section, If the referee is holding 5 of the 10 manure samples with him/her,  does this mean the team gets to move only seven(7) samples instead of twelve(12) – per challenge update document changed from 10 to seven. If team moves manure samples one at a time to the training and research area, does this mean the team would get a maximum of 7*5 = 35 plus 5 for completing the mission, now potentially 40 in total ?

>> QUESTION ON PENALTIES LISTED UNDER M15:
>> 1.    When Referee place manure sample in white triangle, in the south west area for interrupting the robot? Is this just a gesture to show the team that they have six (6) point penalty ?
>> 2.    The tringle that is referenced in M15 PENALTIES section, Is this the triangle where FIRST is written (right above the big LEGO logo in the base) ?
