Scoring Vs Judging

The push or pull is not defined if I recall...you may do either (Push back into the box or pull toward the edge where half rolls are concerned) but the roll on the up line IS defined as needing to be there.  We had NUMEROUS occurances of the same problem with the same result.  Startled contestants learning a hard lesson.
 
The more confusing situation was when the 1/4 - 1/2 - 1/4 roll and the 4-point were both in the Masters pattern.  There were frequent occurances of people flying the wrong one (swapping the two, or a complete brain glitch and flying one twice).  The debate was whether to downgrade 5 pts for missing a hesitation (in the case of flying the 1/4-1/2-1/4 instead of a 4-point) as outlined in the rules, or Zero for flying the wrong manuever.  I'm an advocate of "benefit of the doubt" and chose the 5pt downgrade...but the camp seemed evenly divided.
