Certainly Aerial Assist would pose a set of issues. FTC hasn't really had games like that, though. Quite a bit of the information necessary to calculate the score is sitting on the field at the end of the match in FTC games.

I've only done the one FLL event, but we simply talked to the teams and explained the scoring at the end of each match. We had a checklist that listed each mission, and I told them how many points they got for which things, then we all signed the paper. If they had missed some points that they thought they had, I explained why. In a couple of cases the students pointed out a mistake that I made, I agreed with them, and I changed it.
