Re: Counting discs

I worked both CT & PTR as field reset. The Auto was counted as they went in & relayed to scorekeeper. If any Frizbees went in just after the Auto buzzer, they were counted as well. There was always at least 2 people counting at all times. With such a mass inflow of Frisbees during telop, the count was done at the end of the match. 90% of the Frizbees went in the top goal, so they were counted 1 by 1. At both CT & PTR I never saw any robots climbing after the end buzzer, so that 5 second rule was moot. If anything, occasionally one would droop down a little. The refs never counted robots until they stopped swinging.
