Is that pretty much how it seemed to those actually attending?
For what it is worth, my wife attended Friday AM and was baffled by the entire game. I think that was when the real time scoring system was totally off, so it kind of confirms my believe that this year's game really requires a reliable real time scoring system.

I'll second. There were definitely problems with the scoring system even today. I believe they were pausing the match after autonomous to get the winner from the manual scoring. Also, the first match of the finals was restarted after autonomous mode. With no explaination, just a lot of waiting around for the crowd, and a foghorn.
I've noticed the spectator difficulty as well. I suspect it stems from the fact that in all previous games you had a decent shot of telling who was winning by just a glance at the field. This year, if real time scoring isn't working, you can blink and not have a clue who's winning.
