Re: Week 2: So how's that Field Working?

We quickly caught on to that and restarted the match.
Tell me, if I hadn't noticed that we were still disabled during auto mode, would that match have went on, or was there some display showing we weren't enabled?

I know of at least one match we were in that was screwed up. When the scores first appeared, and were announced.. I think they were 30-11. About a second before they disappeared from the screen, they were 30-17. Seeing as how a number of different people from our team saw us score 4 balls in the middle goal, I'm hoping the second one was the actual score. There was also a DQ that match that wasn't announced
*JUst checked the match results, it went in as 30-17, which is fine by me.


Only one other problem.. we had the metal cover from the alliance lights fall onto our controls when a robot hit the wall. That was a bit shocking.
