Re: Real-Time Scorekeeping for 2005?!

you know i have to hand it to the RTS people, and I wish you luck this year. While there are a few more things to keep track of this year i don't think it will be that hard since tetras CAN'T BOUNCE off the goal nor can they SQUEEZE out of it =) causing a little bit of scoring chaos, once that tetra is there it should be there for good all you gotta really worry about is who's capping what, RTS people shouldn't have to worry about penalties that much either b/c this system in my eyes is suppose to give you an IDEA of what the score could be, and not what it exactly is, after all if FIRST really wanted they could just put little sensors on everything so that the computer can just track and score it appropriately, costly but probably effectively. The only problem is teams wouldn't be able to do much complaining about the way the match was scored cause the referees would say the computer has the final word =)


Oh well Good luck to all the volunteers in 2005 no matter what your doing for FIRST this year.
