Re: Removing time and score from big screen during elimination matches

My interpretation as a scorekeeper is that the GDC intended to have real-time scoring. Thus this is the way the scoring system was designed.

This year's game is basketball. At a "human" basketball game, you know what the score is at all times. I believe that this is also the intent of Rebound Rumble.

The "match result" screen is really a redundant holdover from the games where scores and penalties had to be added manually after the end of the match. You still get the crowd "pop" when the screen goes up, but the results are already known by then.
