Okay, having gone through a second regional, I'm definitely the line that this game is a good idea that was terribly executed. The refs were completely overwhelmed, and we actually lost a match because a possession wasn't counted. Not that it really mattered in the end, but it's incredibly frustrating to have your last match end on such a sour note.

The subjective nature of the game also makes ranking by win/loss a complete joke. I think FIRST should have made Assist points the primary determining factor for ranking, and then made win/loss a tiebreaker. In spite of the name there wasn't a lot of assisting going on during the qualifiers, with far too many teams just taking the ball and playing it themselves.

Still a lot of fun to watch though, especially in eliminations.
