Re: 2010 Lesson Learned: The Negative

Perhaps a DOGMA override switch would work. If there is obviously no hoarding of balls and the system has somehow messed up with scoring (electronic or mechanical) the refs should be able to cancel the DOGMA counter (or any equivalent for future years). It wouldn't totally stop the penalties, but losing 2 or 3 points and then a manual cancelation of DOGMA is much better than a failed system "dogma'ing you to death"
