I'm sure the real time sensors are weight sensitive and the refs were watching the auton scoring so they could subtract the number of discs from the total count. I suspect the photo had something mechanically stuck making the goal box seem heavy. If someone is counting the discs for each Q match, that's one hell of a job. There was more time being taken between elimination matches at Palmetto (including huddles at the scoring table), so they might have been counting them for eliminations.

If anyone here has a better suggestion for a real time scoring system for now or in the future, I'd suggest adding it to your feedback forms; but sometimes the real world is not a very precise place.
