At what point would FIRST decide to make changes to rules that may affect strategies of a very select few in order to better administer the game they designed? I can't answer that question.

This is the best post I've read all week.
The game is, IMO, broken because of the overused penalties, delayed scoring, incorrect scoring, lack of rule knowledge by referees, 2003-style defense gameplay and obscure field issues. Anything they can do to make the game "less broken" is good.
There's weird field stuff happening too. I've watched goofy timing display stuff on the webcasts, as well as delays between when a ball is scored and the assist lights go off and pedestal lights go on. Also, I've seen a few more timing issues with the hot goals (8 seconds left, 2 seconds right). Does anybody know how they're scoring these?
