I would be interested in the GDC releasing the exact scoring process the field crew uses at the conclusion of a match. Also to semi bump the edit I made, does anybody know if you can have more then one bin set at the end of auto?
What they have done in the past, and the most likely scenario: The refs will try to track live score, and then will walk out and verify their counts once everything stops moving.
