Bottom line: FIRST should eliminate the tie breakers.

There were several (about 5-6) QP matches in NJ Regional 2000 that went 5-levels deep... i think it was "Closest to Center of Ramp." Also that year a couple Elim matches went 3-levels deep..."Most Black Balls" or "Most total balls".

Keep the TB's for now. Maybe some year we'll have a game that scores itself (position of goals and/or robots is tracked electronically and auto-updates the score board) and if, at the end of 2:00, the score is tied, the game continues in "overtime" until someone scores next. Sort of like sudden-death in (playoff) hockey or (playoff) football. Only problem will be tracking Penalties on the fly..... hmmm....
