Re: Curie Semifinal 1 - 3, what happened?

I think FIRST needs a better communication line between the refs and the drive teams. Lets face it it must be extremely embarassing to have to recall a prior ruling and it doesn't happen often. Maybe the head ref could have a very quick chat with one member of each team before the next round starts and before the results are posted. This would allow each side to quickly point out any questions they may have had durring a match and clear every things up.

I know at UTC a procedure was layed out to speak with the head ref, however the one time that our team wanted to speak with him, we followed the procedure and they started the next match without talking to us. Communication on the field is key.
