Re: NASA/VCU field problems

one of the main problems i have with this is the fairness. As a number of people brought up, some teams attend only this regional. If their scores were botched for 2 matches, that could potentially drop them completely out of the running for finals. Now, it's impossible to make week 1 regionals completely equal, due to the fact that the scoring system gets debugged, among other things, but I think all teams are entitled to get their claims thoroughly reviewed. There are numerous complaints that ramped robots were not scored. Seeing as they have real-time webcasting, I don't see why a ref couldn't look at the video and see if the robots were on the ramp at the end.
