OK, thanks, Greg. However, I received a warning for almost stepping into the alliance box in our second semi-final match (Team 222 had substituted for 980). I wonder if all of the ref's were aware of rule <T21>.

What's different about IRI and official FIRST events is once a backup team is brought in, the team that went out stays out. IRI allows teams to mix/match robots alliance members, etc. in any of the elimination matches.
