Re: Scoring incorrect

At BAE we had two matches misscored. In a qualifying match, we placed a trackball on top of our overpass, which then got knocked forward and off the rails by an opponent. This *should* have been scored as a hurdle, but was not scored at all. We lost the match by fewer than 8 points, so this misscored hurdle was the deciding factor. This was also not the only time we saw this happen at BAE - one side's refs were consistently not scoring hurdles in this kind of situation on Friday. They did improve, and correctly scored such matches on Saturday.

We also had one match - a semifinal - where the autonomous score was not scored correctly. There was a 2 minute delay while the referees adjusted the score, and I'm still not sure if it ever got corrected properly.
