Hopefully it can make a comeback--it was incredibly useful for "We're in match 45, it's supposed to be in 15 minutes, but they're only on match 33, so we've got an extra hour to make those improvements" or "Uh... Guys, they're running ahead. GET TO THE FIELD!".
It is also open sourced such that any team could run it at their event.

Pity about the wireless rules
