Re: Scoring System Problems
At the Wisconsin Regional there was at least one incidence in an early match in which a ball bounced in and partially back out of the goal counter, so that it counted two balls as being scored. However, only one ball was returned to the field. That alliance ended up losing due to the autmated DOGMA penalties.

They appealed, but were told that the final score was official. But the field crew used manual scoring for the remainder of the regional.

As a result, the real-time scoring was often not correct.
