Re: Refereeing

So if I'm understanding you all correctly your saying that you want an all encompassing rule book with no ambiguity, right?

Just for grins lets do some math:
last year there were just sort of 1100 matches in week 1
with 5 weeks of regionals thats 5500 matches total, add in the Championship and the total is 6651.

Say for discussion that the refs had to make 10 decisions on a given robot in a given match, or 60 total per match
60*6151=369060

I for one don't want a rule book that covers 370,000 situations and what the appropriated ruling is, do you?

I feel that the referee crew does a great job, my point is that a rule book that covers all situations can not exist, and that more rules and regulations are not the answer.
