Go to Post I'm sure there aren't a bunch of rule makers sitting in a board room discussing "What rule can we change now to mess with the teams' heads?" Lets all just sit back and enjoy the regionals! - Rick [more]

I noticed in FLR and Pitt that the head ref's would walk over to the driver station of which team would get the card.
Really? It's been two years since I was in the box, but we definitely knew if we had been penalized before our drive team was out of range. From memory, we knew if we had been penalized before the robot was off the field, and we knew the scores before we made it past the curtain. Perhaps this is venue specific?

We have been approached in the past about almost-calls too. "Hey, I noticed you almost committed a <G9001>, you should probably watch out for that in the future."
