Is that new this year? Or did FIRST change something with the FTP protocol/port? I don't recall SVR having this problem before, but I've also seen more issues with the FTP this year than I can ever remember.

Rankings/Match results look to be live on the website now.

The rankings and results are finally up! Tracker, Spyder and other related apps should work now.

My guess is this is a manual upload at the end of the day and that people should not expect it to be refreshing tomorrow.

I think it might actually be working now. The update occurred before match 79, but match 79 data is visible.

I think they actually got it working - I scripted it to email me when the page went live, and I got that update at 5:42PM; I think match 75 or 76 was playing then? I checked after each of the last few matches and the rankings & scores seemed to be updating immediately, so I doubt someone was manually doing that after each of the last few matches.

Yep word is it's been bypassed with a hot spot and will be live tomorrow.

Is 368 running a swerve drive? They certainly look to have some kind of fancy drivetrain going on.

Yes. There's a thread about their robot with more details.

Yes. 368 is running a swerve drive this year and their drivers were impeccable last week in Hawaii.

Head ref is not a reasonable or intelligent person.

1323 asked for timeout. Accidentally turned in backup card. Head said 1323 must sub out.

I was wondering why MadTown called for a backup. This is very surprising to me. Mark is one of the most reasonable and fair head refs there is.

[Navid Shafa]

If that was true...

What a crappy way to go out.

[Tom Bottiglieri]

Every single person on the red alliance asked for 1323 to stay in.

[JV2073]

I agree with Adam. The Head Ref should have been reasonable. If everyone on the red alliance was okay with 1323 (madtown) I don't see a problem.
