Re: Defense for Logomotion

So if the benefit of hanging a red triangle and completing a top row logo is 3+9=12 points and the cost to fetch one from the blue zone is 3 penalty points, why on earth would red leave logos unfinished? Once the red triangles are on the blue rack, they are untouchable, but if they are on the floor in a blue zone, they are usable, but come with a price. Tube starvation is pretty neat, but certainly not unbeatable by a couple fast hangers. The key is to maintain enough situational awareness to realize you are being starved.
