So if it was in that match, it would really affect the outcome.
And would have forced a fourth final match.

Our team didn't catch this in our match videos until later that night so we aren't sure. As part of the drive team for team 2443 I would say this was not match affecting unless if it happened in the third match possibly. I personally cannot identify this match, maybe for being so tuned into playing defense, but it may have been Finals 1.

The venue was pretty small and we did have issues with non-badged (driver team, volunteers) individuals walking field side.
Fortunately, the event ran rather smoothly toward the end of Friday and all-day Saturday!

We are just glad others and the refs saw this and came to a decision whether it was match affecting or not. We weren't sure if others saw this. We thought there was some lack of enforcement on the officials part (as expected from Week 1), but we respect their judgement and understand the job's difficulty. We thought the event ran smoothly and enjoyed our time at the venue. Thanks a bunch for hosting us.
