Re: Week 4: So how's that Field Working?
The scoring at Granite State was terrible. When a robot got too close to a coner goal the scoring went way up. I think it had something to do with shadows. FIRST added refs to the corner goals but it didnt really help. During a match we broke down and only one of our robots got to the corner goal. The team started with 10 balls and picked up two on the way over and dumped them. One ball did not go in. The scoring system showed 9. At the end of the match the score was 9-9. We talked to the head ref who talked to the ref at the corner goal. He came back to us and said that the corner ref couldn't be shure how many balls went in. So we ended up with a tie instead of a win. Another time we were with two other shooters. At the 4th period one of the coaches said we were up by 40 and to not shoot anymore and just go on defense. It turns out the board scored wrong and thats where the coach had looked. We ended up losing the match where we could have won.
