I noticed that at this event, whenever a team shot the ball over the truss it added ten points to their cycle, regardless of whether or not they got it in to the goal after the fact.
However... at the Granite State District even in Nashua NH during week 1, you would only get the truss points if you scored.

Did one of the competitions do it wrong? Was a rule changed in between week 1 and week 4?

To be honest, we lost a playoff match on a buzzer beater truss shot from the other team, which is why I am curious to know whats the deal with that rule.

Thanks,
Joe

Truss points count immediately, it doesn't matter if they were scored afterwards. I was also at Nashua and can guarantee you that they were scoring it immediately.
