I like the addition of the split AP for auton ties, but I really think there should be an additional option of “no score” to differentiate matches where none of the 4 robots score any points. It would just add a 4th box (red win, blue win, tie, no score) to Tournament Manager.

IMO I think that this overcomplicates autonomous more than it already is as well as makes the two choices between tie and no score quite language-confusing, especially when considering that we have 50+ countries with hundreds of languages being used in VEX and require translations for many to understand. Heck I had to read what you said 3 times to figure out what you posted.

We wouldn’t need to add a 4th category to TM to make that a reality. It would just be that neither team is awarded anything. We would just need a bypass for the AP score assigning.
I’m kinda with Connor on this one. I might be totally misinterpreting what was said.
I think all that’s being called for is a fourth choice for auton “outcome”. Currently there is red win, blue win, and no win. However, this year (per the definition of Autonomous Bonus) there also needs to be a button for the case of an auton tie, which awards only 3 points to both alliances.

According to G11 b there has to be an option for no bonus

Yes, but that is just the same option as before auton is awarded, which gives both alliances no points and no cubes.
