Re: 2014 Central Valley Regional

I don't want to seem like a sore loser, I simply want to make it evident to everyone of the situation. In the 3-3 elimination match (Match 11) our alliance as well as 1671's were having an AMAZING match. We were neck and neck the hole time. at the very end it showed us ahead by 5 but they ended up having forgot to give them a pass that they had gotten (understandable). However, according to one of our alliance teammates the refs had forgotten one of our truss passes. Obviously we thought that it may have just been a mistake on our part, but we went through the footage several times and discovered that they did make it. That would have made us continue through the elimination rounds.

Anyways at first we were hoping to get a rematch, but obviously that wasn't going to happen. I really want to see the implementation of a video replay system. Possibly an addition to elimination rounds where each match is reviewed over once if challenged by a certain team. This has probably been brought up several times. I just want to rekindle the thoughts.

Anyways I want to give my congrats to everyone that attended CVR. It was one of the best regionals I have attended and it was a great start to my senior year regionals.

Thanks,
Kevin
