The refs should know the rules, shouldn't they?

[Anthony S.]

There seems to be a lot of anger in this thread, if anyone tried to approach any of the refs or judges with this anger they surely wouldn't listen. I totally agreed with Mike Norton when he said we need to approach the refs nicely and not fuss. If there is any problems or contraversy at any other regionals or at nats, the best thing to do is approach them nicely. By the way this is being discussed I think FIRST is aware of the problem, I'm not sure if they read this forum or not but I think they are aware of it. I'm only a second year FIRST participant but for some reason I think FIRST will clear all of this up before the matches start at nationals, so lets stay calm and not get too mad, because all of this anger won't get us anywhere.
