I'll second this, the field reset crew at ie was great, no issues at all. Our issues were with the pedestal not being lit as the refs were preoccupied scoring the match and looking for fouls. I also noticed that the refs tended to call possessions in the case of a foul much more often than possessions for assists. Multiple teams we're penalized for herding opponents balls when they hit it once or twice while teams that were actually intentionally herding the ball almost never got the assist. This was even happening when the robots were fully supporting their own ball and not getting assist points. The refs need to be either stricter calling possessions on the opponents ball, or they need to be more generous calling assists on your own ball. Several other mentors noticed the same thing.
