Go to Post What I would really love to see is having the teams try to solve a problem that is real scientists are trying to solve right now. Wouldn't it be cool if a team came up with a robot design that could solve one of the world's worst problems? Talk about FIRST publicity! - Beth Sweet [more]

The problem that I have with only replaying just the match affected is that a strategy has just been tested and it most likely won't be used again successfully.

Key examples:

In the first elimination rounds, our excellent partner #902 went under the bar in Auto to disrupt the Chief's Auto Spin mode and it worked perfectly. If it was replayed, I seriously doubt the Chief would have selected the same auto mode just to see it happen again.

In the match in question, seed #2 left the stack of 4 intact after no one was guarding it (Martians were on the opposite side of the field trying to get on the ramp with something like 30 seconds to go) and had a robot on the ramp, both key in allowing seed #6 to win. After noticing this major error, they corrected it (Left no stacks or robots on the ramp) in the replay and went on. I am not sure if everyone here is catching my drift, replaying only one match allows a team to retry a different strategy after seeing the shortfalls of the original.

As I said it's over nothing we can do now.
