At MAR, 25 (and their epic drivetrain) slipped past 1218 and got in contact with the bridge. We then proceeded to follow 25 up the bridge, knocking 1218 into 25 repeatedly (G28 with the G44 exception*) while 341 cornered them between the bridge and the barrier, effectively trapping them without instituting G29 pinning.
*Our alliance sought head-ref clarification well in advance to ensure there was no G45. The key was that we knew we wanted a G28 (without G44) rather than a G25 (with G44), so we took this approach instead of the Queen City style.
Moral: know your rules, and be willing to take the licks they require.
