My crew in a summer provincial game had the interested case of an end-of-quarter situation with a measurement.

On the last play of the first quarter, the LJ had progress (outside the hash marks) to which we had to measure to see if a first down was earned or not. (It was not earned.) Our measurement mechanics employ a checks and balance system so that if any one mechanic fails, there is a fallback method to redo all of the previous decision with 100% accuracy.

The cool thing was I was working with two rookie side guys, and they both nailed the transformation from 1Q to 2Q!
