Scoring incorrect

[catsylve]

We did indeed have a match put up on the scoreboard with an incorrect score at one regional and the members of my team were highly upset because it was a critical match. After the regional was over, however, I made them watch the replay and count the scoring for BOTH alliances. At this point, they saw that the other team's score was not reported correctly either and they had still beaten our alliance. Most probably, the mistake was in not putting the FINAL score up on the screen correctly, not a fault of the referees.

I find that it helps to remind my team that the real reason they are doing this is to learn and develop skills. The game and any mistakes that can be made will never be able to negate what they have gained by working with the mentors. The game is supposed to be fun!
