W = Verbal warning; F = Foul (3); X = Technical Foul (15); D = E-stop disable; Y = Yellow card; R = Red card. The first violation has the consequence listed under "1st", and subsequent violations have the consequence listed under "Rpt", if that is not blank, or else again whatever is in the "1st" column; except that egregious violations have the consequence in the "Egr" column instead, if that is not blank. G12 (X/RP): in qualifications, opponents are awarded the shield generator energized ranking point regardless; in playoffs, technical foul. G15 (H/L): B is considered hanging and B generator switch considered level. G15-A (H/L): All opponents contacting their generator switch are considered hanging with generator switch considered level. | ||||
