The penalty was on 236 for "excessive ramming in user control mode"

in the match before
236 got an almost identical pentaly they got 5 point penalty for ramming in auto mode.

The first penalty showed on the score board, but the second one didn't. 195 alliance would have won both matches had there been no penalties. Guess we need to be a little more gentle


btw: 195 presentation of UTC regional http://www.flickr.com/photos/jdebner...7594080430030/

I still dont know...they had not announced a penalty at all though as they did in qualifying match 4-1...im still a little confused...and the point about the penalty getting called during qualifications is definately tru...we had discussed the issue at our stradegy session before the eliminations...there was no worry about such ramming calls because they werent called in qualifications. if they had been called during qualifications then we wouldnt have used it in our stradegy. from what i get out of the whole situation with scoring and penalties is that it was disorganized. if you arent going to call a penalty, dont call it. if ur gonna call a penalty, call it all the time. the scoring wasnt working properly all weekend...to fix this there should have been people specifically watching the goals...and only watching the goals...3 people per side...they would then add everything together per side...then bring it to the refs and add in any necessary deductions for penalties. from what i saw as human player...the ref would count...but the ref is also watching the game for penalties. im sry if anything offends anyone i just need to vent a little bit because speculations and confusion should be cleared up
