Cool Re: AZ Regionals: Incorrect Scoring?
Oh wow, that is quite a mistake they made. You would think with FIRST they would have a programming error fixed immediately. It sounds like a simple program that can easily be fixed. I wonder what happened and why? Are you suggesting that FIRST find a better way to score and have a back up system in place? If so, I agree with you!

When it comes to scores and rankings, believe me, I don't want any mistakes to happen. 1 position is crucial to whom you may be allied with or competing against. I guess this is very valuable lesson for programmers at FIRST and hopefully the same mistakes won't happen next weekend at other Regionals.
