Re: Running Out of Tetras

The last tetra was picked up by the Chickens at around the 10 second mark. I honestly do not believe that our team could have grabbed another tetra and capped it on the needed goal in the last 8 or so seconds when we made it back to the autoloader, however, I was wondering if anyone could tell me why, when, and / or how the rule involving not moving tetras came into place?
That is incorrect. I was the referee standing in between the red alliance autoloaders, and they never ran out on Einstein. At the end of one of the matches, there were only the two sitting on the autoloader, but there were never zero left.

I am unsure of what caused the no tetra shifting decision to occur, but I became aware of it a few matches into the finals. I questioned it, was told that a decision had been made, and we finished the finals this way.

I would like to clarify that during no match of the finals were there zero tetras available on the autoloading station for the red alliance on Einstein.
