Re: How to get -130 In penalties

I have to say I'm rather disappointed in the this thread and the posts coming from teachers and mentors. We should not be spotlighting this match in the manner that it is presented in this thread. Those students were pretty disheartened, I saw it on their faces, when the penalties were issued and now it's brought to the attention of the entire CD community which I think is really discouraging. We should applaud these guys for having the courage and determination to attempt Hybrid mode. What happened was literally beyond their operators control and they did not do it intentionally. Things go wrong; it happens to the best of us. You learn from it and move on. And if you are fortunate enough to be an experienced mentor that can help or can get someone to help these teams on the learning curve, you should rather than point out how to get 130 points in penalties.
