Re: Co-Op Rules for IRI - Unofficial Vote

While I won't attend IRI, I agree with Paul. IRI is traditionally all about being competitive on the field the whole time.

The biggest incentive to add in a triple balance is that it will give more opportunities to teams to *try* a triple balance when they've never been on an alliance that had an incentive to do one. More triples = more excitement for the successes and more heartache for the teams who fall off.

Are HP's/BP's still being tracked at IRI? Towards the end of a full set of Qual matches, one would be hard-pressed to find two teams with identical QP's and HP's. Yet if BP's were tracked (much easier) at IRI, then that could be the secondary sort after W-L-T, thus incentivizing the triple balance.
