Interesting topology

We should document in a thread or white papers all the different ways people have setup to run off-season events. We kept our field system at Deer Park separated from our scoring system, but that's as odd as we got. Just a wimpy pair of switches and one dinky router. I feel so out-pimped...
Any comments from Mark Koors about what the full FMS problems/symptoms were?
Such uncertainty makes me want to bring my cardboard box of FMS Lite parts along to our regional as a backup system. Paper team numbers aren't as flashy for spectators though...
What were plans B & C?
