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.
I would imagine from a ref perspective, there is a difference between starting in the box at the beginning of the match and steping in during the middle of the match (if this was the case). The differences in the rules with IRI is the exact reason that I asked before we did it. Either way it didn't seem to help our cause in the long run. It was nice playing you all and you did great at IRI to be ranked #1.
