There have been
numerous scoring errors at the events we have been participating in and monitoring. Some of them have been blatant and status changing. We have watched hurdles ignored, hurdles awarded to the opposite team, teams given points for crossing lines in auto after the buzzer, laps mis- multiplied- you name it.There is no recourse to deal with them in the hurried nature of the rounds and the lag in the posting of scores.
It is a part of this game that we may not like but have to live with. It goes right up there with the flurry of penalties.
When scoring is so complex and so much is going on at once it is a breeding ground for human error.
