Personally I know at VCU we kept an accurate score during matches. Many times while holding a goal in our score zone, we would spin around and stick our bot into the other alliances end zone while holding our goal in our scoring position. Mind you, this was done only after triple checking the scores just to be sure.

I can also tell you that teams get VERY excited about getting back to their end zones in time. There was a match or two where I was doing slight blocking to keep our goals where we want them with 15 sec. or so left on the clock. Our partner's would scream at me to get to the end zone but I would never leave until I knew for sure that the other team would not be able to push our goal out in time.

~Tom Fairchild~, who thinks that if you just remain calm about the whole thing, the game is much easier to play than last year's.
