Wow, and you said that even before SF 3 happened!

1v3 in 2 straight semis

Does anyone know what specifically happened to make it a 1v3? It would stink if an alliance as good as #1 lost for this.

118 and 2613 didn't even make it to the field for semi 3. 624 still managed 95 points by themselves though.

I seriously doubt that 148 (or any high-caliber team, for that matter) would ever tell another team to not put their robot in the field.

As ruled:

148 didnt make the field in time.
987 took more than 60 seconds to set up.
Timeout wasn't called soon enough.

Are the field crew being more strict with match times and setup times than they were earlier in the event.

It's very unusual to have this many teams missing their matches in eliminations.

If 987 had a problem with setting up in one minute, wouldn't it have been discovered before semi-finals.

Can anyone who's there chime in? Can't tell much from the stream.

They had the robot sidelined because they were manufacturing a 2 can grabber. Nothing ungp.

The rule says "significant or repeated delays". Is 987 really taking that long to set up? I wouldn't imagine so...

I wonder if it has anything to do with the very extended nature of this event. Since Dallas is going so late, the refs may be trying to ensure the event concludes as quickly as possible...

Still would like to see things enforced uniformly, just so that no one has any surprises in playoffs.

Consistent enforcement would be great. At PNW Auburn Teams were asked to not revert robots to transport config in playoffs to speed up match turnaround. The teams were not taking over 60 seconds, but the field crew wanted to move faster. They started requesting this on Friday night when we were 2 hours behind

The refs and field crew at PNW Oregon City pretty much said 'if it's safe, don't worry about transport config' the entire time, including quals and playoffs. We were about 2 hours behind on Friday even with that, though...
