Yeah....this was pretty confusing for everyone involved.

We were experiencing some type of short or something that was locking up the robot until after a cRIO reboot, so we had to 'dead ball' to allow our alliance to continue while we waited for the robot to come back alive. Once it did we just tried to get rid of the extra ball as soon as possible, but once the ball came loose it was hard to tell which was which.

The other time, I'm pretty sure thre pedestal was not supposed to light up. But once the ball is on the field the only way to clear the confusion is to score it quickly.

We just scored them and let the refs figure it out. I feel bad for the refs, its pretty hard to keep track of everything going on in this game.
