Re: The Fraud of FTC Worlds - How FTC & FIRST have failed me forever.

It seems like the overarching problem is teams not being able to question scores they received, whether in FRC or FTC. Every season there is some controversy about a bad call or a score miscount, and I don't know if any measures have been taken to mitigate this problem. FLL makes students check their scores before they are submitted and it seems like a viable solution for FRC/FTC.

Referees are volunteers who take time out of their lives to help with this competition, and I don't think it is fair for them when they get called out later on with match video on a public platform for a bad call they made with good intentions. Some sort of process in which teams can check the scores and penalties before they are finalized or can retroactively modify them with some proof (even if it's only in place during playoffs/elims) would be beneficial for all parties.
