I remember the 20 minute ref conference after Q2-4 in 2007 where they essentially did a forensic reconstruction of the match to figure out how a VERY strange double inadvertant self-spoil during a de-spoil should have correctly been scored. They initially announced the wrong score with wrong alliance winning, but retracted it immediately. After the score was corrected, the other alliance ended up winning 28-27. It took a lot of guts to reverse the decision on a deciding eliminations match, and by such a small margin. But they got it right... they did a great job.
... This was the highlight of my first year as head ref last year... ...
