We didn't get to six matches, but at Groton we played a match, were told we had to replay, played the match again, were told it didn't count again, then played (and won) twice. We were never told why.

It is really stressful on the robots, playing these matches back to back. We weren't prepared with batteries and spares to be out on the field this much, especially after the morning where we had two more replayed matches. I know for us there was at least one set of matches where there was much less than a 6 minute field timeout. I like these replays because we ended up with an additional 5 matches for our team in eliminations and qualifications and a bunch of driver practice with our alliance that really helped our elimination alliance make it to the finals.
