There was a match played that they stopped and had to restart.
I missed it because I was working the Pits.
I heard that Team Big Red was in the match at the time. I think it was on Fri.
Will someone please give me the details.
Thanks,

I was a volunteer onstage at the time, and there were a couple of matches replayed… one was due to computer error- the clock had randomly stopped halfway through remote control mode.
Another time, apparently the computer didn’t release one bot from autonomous mode, or somehow disabled it, such that it didn’t move at all during the match.
Don’t quite remember which teams were involved in each case, but those were the ones I was aware of.

match 67 - they went back to the original score instead of using the rematch score (^.^)
Originally, everyone thought the controllers had failed because of one of the robots not responding. So, the match was replayed to be fair. But after the match was replayed, the problem was traced and the match really should not have been replayed. So it was to everyone’s advantage that the original score be given.
