The alliance who won the tie breaker did go on to win the series. Shouldn't they have 10 points?

I had noticed some point irregularities for playoff points awarded to alliances when tiebreakers came into effect. This is one of those cases, where the winning alliance should have 10 points for moving on (not 5), but the tiebreaker is not evaluated correctly by the district point system.
It turns out FIRST is aware of this, and for now is manually adding points to correct playoff tiebreakers. If you take a look at the team's point summary page (
4915 for example), you will see 'Temporary Tiebreaker Adjustment" crediting +5 points, under manual corrections. These points show up in the team's total on the
district ranking page, but do not show up in the points at that event.
