Perhaps a system could be implemented so that all teams get as many vid reviews as they wish until a claim they have made is denied and thus lose the privilege to contest via video review.

To me this is a win win. Discourages claims without certainty, and if a team has two or more valid issues, they aren't punished for it.

I think a reasonable set or rules regarding number of challenges could be:

• For the entire Qualification match schedule, each TEAM gets one unsuccessful CHALLENGE. For an ALLIANCE to issue a CHALLENGE, all 3 TEAMS on the ALLIANCE must have their CHALLENGE remaining, and all must agree to issue a CHALLENGE. If a CHALLENGE is successful, all TEAMS keep their CHALLENGE. If a CHALLENGE is unsuccessful, all TEAMS lose their CHALLENGE for the remainder of the Qualification MATCH schedule. If a TEAM still has their CHALLENGE at the end of the Qualification MATCH schedule, it does not carry over to the Elimination tournament. For a CHALLENGE to be successful, the ranking points awarded at the end of the MATCH must change as a result of review.
• In the Elimination tournament (except for Final MATCHES), each ALLIANCE gets one unsuccessful CHALLENGE. The ALLIANCE CAPTAIN determines when to issue a CHALLENGE. If a CHALLENGE is successful, the ALLIANCE keeps its CHALLENGE. If a CHALLENGE is unsuccessful, the ALLIANCE loses its CHALLENGE for the remainder of the Elimination tournament. For a CHALLENGE to be successful, the winner of the MATCH must change as a result of the review.
• All non-judgement calls in Finals and Einstein MATCHES are reviewed automatically during the ensuing FIELD TIMEOUT.
