Re: FMS final scoreboard design

I agree with the addition of auto points, it would do a great deal to show who scored what when. In regards to what orangemoore suggested, it might be a good idea to have a sort of "victor" splash page that pops up first when the scores are finalized, and then transitions into the regular score screen after a few seconds.


Additionally, I would like it if foul points were clarified on the scoreboard, since in every other sport, a foul indicates a penalty on your team, a random observer at a FIRST event might see 20 foul points on red alliance score and think red caused the penalty (heck, sometimes it even confuses me).
