The rules aren't that bad this year but still they could be edited.

I definitely agree that there needs to be a camera in place where these types of penalties may occur. I also believe that there needs to be a vertical view of the field recorded during the entire match to be reviewed in the case of high goal scoring issues. It turns out that the goal of making a ball in the high goal is to trip the sensor at the top of the tube, not to make a ball through the bit red/blue circle. Our team made 3 balls in autonomous mode, but only 2 were counted because 1 got caught in the goal and didn't roll down to the tube. Because of this, we lost autonomous and ended up losing the match. Had the match been scored correctly we would have won. When our team approached the judges with video of this, they wouldn't look at it.
