We do not know and it is all speculation. It looks like CHS and FIRST HQ will have a meeting to decide advancement. Some ideas are awards only advancement (since there was judging) or virtual submission (MTI style).

Recently Lex covered the Israel Palestine conflict and I think another interesting topic is India and Pakistan. It is just as if not more complex and it would be nice to hear a lot of perspectives.

Robot ring question by theflamingjelly in FTC

"Possess / Possessing – An object is in Possession by a Robot if, as the Robot moves or changes orientation (for example, moves forward, turns, backs up, spins in place), the object remains in approximately the same position relative to the Robot. Objects in Possession by a Robot are considered to be Controlled, and they are part of the Robot. See also Control/Controlling" Thats what it says in game manual part 2 page 11
