Re: Scoring incorrect

Bitterly complaining about scoring and officiating is a perennial feature of CD, at least in the four seasons I've been reading it. Remember the near-hysterical criticism of scoring mistakes and 30-point penalties in 2005? I need to go dig up some quotes from those old threads to help people put Overdrive in perspective. |

Re: Scoring incorrect
I don't believe our team was in any misscored matches. However, we also were getting fairly high scores, so none of us were really that worried about watching exactly how many points we obtained. The drivers would ask how many hurdles they got, and I would answer "a lot".

Re: Scoring incorrect
I have to say that I never saw a match miscalculated (or at least where a team lost dramatically because of it)
I will warn teams to be careful when they attach the flags to their robots. At Peachtree we were warned several times to attach our flags correctly (black wire to black wire) or else suffer the consequences of laps that didn't count. BIG KUDOS to the crew down at Peachtree because even with the weather, the problems, and the complicated scoring, all of the volunteers did an awesome job reffing and judging. I seriously thought it was a well-run regional. On another note, I would advise teams to assign a member of their group to calculate the number of hurdles, lines crossed, and balls pushed in the match to calculate the score (at least a guesstimate!) As the RoboCoach when the hybrid mode is over I personally keep track of how much our team does as well as penalties. While I didn't catch everything, it was still pretty obvious who won or at least where our score ended up. Good Luck guys!!! |

Re: Scoring incorrect
Why don't we get instant replay? Just make a video for people to refer to when they think something is wrong. Have one ref who is there just to review the footage with teams that would like to challenge the score. We have the technology to do this and it wouldn't be that hard to work out. As long as we limited each team to 1 challenge or something it would not be too time consuming.

Re: Scoring incorrect
I think the finals 3 match of svr was probably misscored.

Perhaps a good practice would be for all teams to pay extra attention to the score of their first match on Friday to help make the rest of the matches go smoothly and correctly. |

Re: Scoring incorrect
The scorekeeping software has a manual adjustment function, which allows the scorekeeper to enter a total manually. Sounds like the scorekeeper made a mistake. (Please, Lord, don't let it be me next time...)

Re: Scoring incorrect
Ah. I was curious as to how that worked. Scorekeeping must be one horrible job - no one even thinks of it unless something goes horribly wrong, at which point everyone is angry (of which I've certainly been guilty). Good luck with your scoring and thanks for volunteering in such an important position!
