Re: Call Inconsistencies Between Regionals
Just got back from Chessie and while the referees weren't perfect it was called pretty consistently.
Here is something that happened that may be an idea going forward.
On Thursday the refs were actually working with the teams to identify some sticky (subjective) rules and how they would be applied. As an example we are a herder/lap bot. We wanted to get the extra 2 points for the ball crossing the line as often as possible. This brings up the question of whether we were in contact with the ball even if it was rolling on the ground. The refs made it clear they wanted us completely seperated from the ball and even helped by signalling during Thursdays matches whether or not they would call it good. This was extremely helpful. If more of this behavior were exhibited I'm sure there would be less controversy in the later matches because there would be a better understanding of what to expect.
