Re: Should you invoke the wrath of <G14>, the whole world will know!

There will be a real time score. If you look at the pictures the Blue Alliance circulated from the New Hampshire Kickoff, there were pictures of the scoring controllers 4FX Design designed for the game.

Controllers
and
Controller Screen

and the Audience Screen Score Bar

Each robot will have a individual "scorer" (total of 6) that counts the moon Rocks and Cells in a robot's associated trailer. The cummulative Rocks and empty Cells for an alliance will be number that appears next to the symbol that looks like a game piece on the screen, "legal" Super Cells in trailers will appear as lighting bolts under that number, the cummulative score of Rocks and Cells will be the total score for an alliance in the associated colored square towards the middle of the screen. the ovals around the team numbers (green in the associated picture) will change color to indicate if a team has a <G14> penalty from the previous match. This will be evident as soon as the team numbers are brought up for the forthcoming match. Also this year, when a team is issued a penalty, it will immediately be indicated on the audience screen above the team score with a "penalty bar" similar to what they use to indicate "flags" on tv football games.
