Ok, then I am reading the first sentence of 5.4.4 incorrectly.

(Emphasis mine.)
If each of the first six tie-breaker criteria fails to break the tie, the match is replayed (emphasis mine) -- in which case the tie is never recorded, and the replay result is. I think the sentence above should be change to end "... Win or Loss." Since all Playoff ties are broken, teams cannot earn a tie.

In the admin manual, 7.4.1.3 it states that each team will receive 10 points for each Quarter Final, Semi Final, and Finals levels as long as no substitute robot is called on. Seeing as our alliance (346, 1086, and 2534) won the event, it seems as if we should have gotten the 30 district points for the event. There seem to be a few discrepancies and hopefully they are resolved quickly.
