Is a cube considered scored if it is touching the OUTSIDE field perimeter. I cannot find an official definition for field perimeter.In a separate topic there was a question as to weather a cube is score if it is in contact with the floor outside of the field but not the floor inside and it was considered scored. Is the perimeter the top and inside edges? And if so would a cube be scored if held up by the platform and and NOT supported by the top and inner edges of the perimeter but merely in contact with the outer wall of the perimeter? Thanks!

Cube Scored on a platform
Answered by Game Design Committee
The relevant definition states the following:
Scored - A Game Object is Scored if it satisfies one of the following conditions, and is not touching a Robot.
d. A Cube is Scored on a Platform if it meets the following criteria:
i. The Cube is contacting the Platform (including its supporting structures).
ii. The Cube is not contacting the Floor.
iii. The Cube is not contacting the Field Perimeter.
iv. The Cube matches the color of the Platform (i.e. is a green Cube).
The "Field Perimeter" refers to the VEX IQ Field Perimeter wall and corner pieces.
And if so would a cube be scored if held up by the platform and and NOT supported by the top and inner edges of the perimeter but merely in contact with the outer wall of the perimeter?
This would be considered "contacting the Field Perimeter", and would therefore not be considered Scored.
