Indeed. I saw a match at the Boilermaker regional where one robot consistently put a trackball across the overpass on each lap, but about half the time the driver moved forward too soon and re-contacted the ball before it hit the floor. The spoiled hurdles were correctly not counted, but I wouldn't be surprised if many people didn't realize the team's mistake and thought it was a scoring error.
