It was very strange and had I been the losing team on some of them, I would have raised the issue with the judges. For instance, we tied 296's alliance at one point 8-8 after they'd been leading us 55-8 in the real time scoring.
Oh, and 296 got screwed over on their only loss. They sight by the green light, and it didn't go on in autonomous. They have it on tape, and I saw it with my own eyes while it happened. However, rather than doing a field reset, the refs and judges merely said that it was impossible and that it couldn't have happened. Except for those anomalies, 296 would have been 9-0 at BAE.

I do know that the scoring system was even worse before the updates they added. That really bites that you guys got screwed over. At NJ if there was a problem with the field (ie: autonomous not firing, green lights not going on) and it was in fact the field fault, then we did have to replay the match...in fact we had to replay SF 1 Match 1 3 times before it ran correctly.
