Re: Call Inconsistencies Between Regionals

having a dedicated scorekeeper per robot would not work 100% in this year's game.
Example I gave earlier: A team unsuccessfully hurdles a ball and it gets stuck on the overpass. Another teammate comes around and knocks it off.
Its a hurdle that may be missed by a scorekeeper who only keeps track of what his/her respective robot is doing.
This happened as our team was waiting in the que area before our match.

If we can take one positive out of what happened at SVR, everyone who was frustrated with these issues at their respective regional(s), has really come to light as a result of the SVR situation.
This will definitely help FIRST and the GDC to address with greater emphasis on referee game knowledge, rules and the design of future games.
