Just have scorers double the count of every ball scored at the end of Auto (Or Triple, or Quadruple, or etc...)
(Ie: A team scored 5 balls, put 10, 15, 20, etc. in the scoring hand-helds.)
-Shouldn't be that hard to track, & even if some team(s) have insane amounts scored that come into question, just count them real quick (manually) during the break between Auto & Tele-op - Could delay a match a minute or so, but if teams are (repeatedly) scoring sucessfully in Auto-mode by the IRI rolls around (which I would like to see teams aim for), it's worth it.
