Re: Week 1 Analysis
Speaking as a ref, on a 6-person crew, at a Week 1 regional:
The crew I was on was in agreement that we had way too much to do. And that the panels for input need an update.
1) The refs are keeping track of possessions, scores (truss, catch, and goal--and miss), cycles, AND fouls by both robots and human players. Odds are, something is going to get overlooked unless it's blatant.
2) Lag, lag, wait for it... lag. On some screens, the panels are fairly quick... but on others, it's a good solid 3-4 seconds. And when ending a cycle, on top of the potential wait for a ball to be good or bad for sure, there's whatever lag is in the system to get the signal to the pedestal to light up.
And... my personal hope is that G40 gets revised to a Foul. Particularly given the severe effects a T-Foul has on the score.
