Answered by Game Design Committee

Please review the Q&A Usage Guidelines, specifically point 1, "Read and search the manual before posting", and point 3, "Quote the applicable rule from the latest version of the manual in your question."

The definition of Scored reads as follows:

Scored - A Game Object is Scored if it satisfies one of the following conditions, and is not touching a Robot

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).

Note: A maximum of one (1) Cube may count for points per Platform.

There are no restrictions regarding contact with other Cubes. Therefore, the Cube you describe would be considered Scored.
