Re: Video Review Needs to Happen Now

We did not offer teams the chance to challenge via video replay at CCC (frankly, we had so much going on during the planning this year that we couldn't even think about it).

However, in the elimination rounds, there were two instances where we believe the match was scored incorrectly. We went back and looked at it on video to see and, if necessary, recount boulder scores and/or defense crossings. It made a significant difference having the video review.

In Finals Match 3, the final score that was initially posted showed that the blue alliance did not get a breach and, thus, did not earn the bonus points. Once the score went up I (Scorekeeper/FTA) immediately knew that it was wrong, the blue alliance was not given credit for the breach and red had won the match and, thus, the tournament initially. Others who were fieldside weren't so sure if they did get the breach or not. We replayed the stream back on one of the monitors and surely enough, the blue alliance did get the breach and not only that but their autonomous wasn't scored correctly either. The scoring adjustments were made and it put them over the red alliance and they ended up winning the tournament.

Not the best implementation, but it made a huge difference.
