In every video I've checked, I've found that exactly 2 minutes later you'll hear the announcer saying "5 seconds left!" I just checked and it appears (based on more TBA video) that this bug was introduced between the 2008 and 2009 seasons.
I wondered if anyone was doing anything like that with timers that would run the length of the match... obviously for anyone trying that this bug is a little more serious. I can't think of any easy way off the top of my head to know how much time is remaining in the match other than what you're doing, so yes, I guess you'd have to wait until 1:22... (think of the upside though - maybe this means we can all be 5 pounds overweight!)

Wow... I was first going to ask if you added the time between auto and teleop. But you didn't, I just confirmed this by watching some of the FLR videos.
Very interesting.
