Unfortunately, I'm not mentoring this year, so I haven't read the tournament details.

The ref's have a BIG JOB this year watching this game. I can't imagine sitting there trying to watch all the fouls, and everything they do. In this game, they might miss a defense crossing, or a foul. At some point I am sure teams get frustrated, but they have to remember we are only human.
Well I will miss seeing you with Argos! Hope all is going well.
To answer your last question, never before in past games has it been very important that all three robots work all the way to the end. There is a feature in this game in eliminations that you have to shoot 8 boulders to take castle. (we did that part), however to get 25 bonus points, all three robots have to be on the castle batter. We would have tied QF3-3 had our alliance robot not been dead. So it's tougher this year if you think about. Two robots can't carry the win like in games past. Those 25 points are a deal breaker.
