Re: Lesson Learned: The Negative

I'm not sure if anybody else had this problem, but whenever I was driving and a penalty would be assessed against us I would not know it because i would not be paying attention to the refs at that moment or not notice line crossings. This is the same with bumping to pass and impeding traffic and such. Maybe they could implement a system to better identify when penalties occur and such.
One way to do this would for each of the refs to have a buzzer and hit it whenever a robot causes a penalty and the buzzer would then alert the drivers you just caused a penalty. This could also be used for impeding if you made the buzzer blink on and off for the 6 second period.
