I know some teams got pretty upset with the difference between actual points and awarded points, but I'm sure the sensors either missed a ball or double counted a ball at least once in every match. Imagine teams complaining after every match... I like Abe's idea with the NFL-style Video Challenges.
I'm pretty sure you're talking about qf3-1 with our alliance against yours and you are right. Sorry about that. According to what i have heard, if the right alliance won the match, they didn't worry too much about the point difference. So, in this case, since your alliance won, they didn't bother showing that you actually won by 3 points instead of 1. In either way, your alliance righteously won that match.
