Whatever the answer is, let's hope we get a better system this week (if not, then next).
I was about to post the same thing. Another good thing to know is that (I forget what thread I read this in, might have been this one) the software was tested at a scrimmage this year, someone pointed out that the matches had not been random, and FIRST chose not to fix the problem then. Hopefully if someone sees that more than that one person at the scrimmage don't like it then they will change their minds.
