Re: how high
I remember hearing it was 12. Anyone know for sure?
EDIT: I'd look through the rules, but this computer keeps crashin when it loads a pdf. |
Re: how high
There is no limit to how high you can stack. I seriously doubt stacks will get that high anyways in 2 minutes.

Re: how high
come to the nj reagional i bet you will see stacks 8 or higher

Re: how high
Sure, we'll probably seem them, but it won't be a winning strategy in my opinion.

Re: how high
If I've said it once, Ive said it a thousand times and I'll say it another time.
Anytime someone tries to take up more then 3 tetras at a time, they're going to attract a lot of attention to themselves and waste a lot of time. I seriously doubt seeing more then 5 on a single goal...seems like a waste of time to me when you have a possibility of 9 goals to stack from....id spread the wealth....there are no bonuses for stacking high, so whats the point? |

That I'm not sure is completely true.. But no, there is no limit to what you can stack.. Just don't tip over a stack that's too high while trying to cap.. Disasterous... |

[opinion mode]
Probably the tetras falling down "on there own" would be an effect of the last team to stack. Hence the last team to stack would most likely get the penalty. [/opinion mode] |

But, if a stack were so high, and you accidentally ran into a goal and they toppled, then you would get penalties (like below). I couldn't find the Q/A or rule about that, but I remember seeing it somewhere. If you try to cap it, and things fall over, then I believe the opponent owns that goal for the remainder of the match, and I believe all the opponents tetras on that goal would be counted (going by G18). Not to mention the safety issues and possible damage to the tetras if they all fall over... what a sight it would be. Suggest thinking about another goal if a goal is capped more than 11-12 high. |

Well I have seen this: Big stack guess its not completely true. |
Re: how high
You can stack as many as you can, but with the exception of irregular circumstances there is typically a wiser choice on a different goal.
And about the Wildstang photo, wow... just wow |
Re: how high
This comes down to a simple math:
Let’s say you have 6 great robots. Game limit is 80 tetras. If all tetras are equally spread and stacked above goals, the highest stack you will see is ~9 tetras In this same example, lets take the 40 tetras each side gets, Evenly distributed each robot gets to touch ~13 tetras, That means EACH Robot on an alliance has to get a tetra in play every ~8 seconds in non-auto mode!:eek: (105 seconds of time) So what if your alliance robots can cap a tetra every 15 seconds? Well, each robot can get 7 tetras into play, each alliance gets 21 tetras into play. If both alliances are equal, 63 tetras get into play total, giving us an average stack of ~7 What about 20 seconds? ~5 Tetras into play per robot, 15 Tetras into play per alliance, 30 tetras per game, Average Stack is ~3 per goal :ahh: Sure there is some fundamental problems with my math( What about auto mode? What about teams that don’t score tetras?) But it gives an idea. |
