I can assure you that the #1 goal of every JA in FRC is to ensure that every team has a positive experience that they feel was fair. Comments like those judges made undermine that.

I am not questioning the integrity of the Judges. I know it is a difficult job for them. I am now also wondering if they were "Miss Universed" because of a simple "clerical error". That would go a long way towards explaining why "their number was not mentioned". This year, the Lone Star FLL Championship Tournament had an issue with a team being disqualified erroneously (different organizers). The error was only discovered after the event had ended.
