TOWER Malfunctions since Week 3

[FRC4ME]

I saw a few sensors fail to trigger that probably should have at VCU.

That the sensors don't work all the time is not an issue. While I would have liked to see less failures, we can't expect the field to work 100% of the time. Where I see a problem is FIRST explicitly disallowing referees from overriding the automated scoring system in instances when it clearly did not work correctly. To pretend that the sensors work perfectly ("you must not have hit with enough force," "you must have hit a bolt," "it works when we whack it with a broom so it must be your minibot's fault..." etc) when they obviously do not is, IMO, a bit arrogant.
