Re: AZ Regionals: Incorrect Scoring?
Howdy folks.
I'm the student coach of Team 1425 that Jeffrafa mentioned and I thought I would put in my $.02.
Regarding the scoring change hours after the match: Its not so much they changed the score, its that they didn't tell us (or anyone for that matter). We just found out the score was changed, and we had to go contact the proper authority to find out what was going on. The official response was that the the communication between the judges and announcer/scoring man was the problem, as the score was not properly conveyed. Not that I think they are lying, but I find it suspicious that when they saw the score on the screen, no one brought anything up.
I do commend FIRST though, as Paul Shay came and personally apologized to us and the other team involved in the seeding and alliance selection fiasco.
Not that the mistakes should be excused, but its not like we didn't have the opportunity to show our stuff and win.
