Dave,
I agree that Jive post you pointed out contradicts my statements. I was merely saying how it was called this weekend, and the rationale behind it (at least in Manchester). The Head-Ref in NH was someone from FIRST authorized to make "official" calls like these... this was how we called it, which leads me to believe that is how FIRST wants it. I'm not sure how much faith can be put in many of the Jive rulings... As mentioned in other threads, there is quite a bit of contradiction in there...

Hopefully FIRST will prepare the week 2 ref's accordingly, with a TRUE answer to this dispute. We'll just have to wait and see...

I'm no longer on the "official" side either... 229 is competing at UTC, so I guess we'll see first hand how this ruling goes.

Hopefully things will be ironed out WELL before Stang's week 3 regional.

Thanks,
John
