from all the speculation on scoring. this game is not simplier than last year at all. when i first saw the game i thought cool... simple scoring. but as soon as I saw that big stick measuring a stack i knew things would get complicated. i say no SHU, no virtual stack. spectators will get a headache trying to figure out whats going on.

the stack should be simply that. count the layers of it and thats how high it is. multiply by the ones on the ground not in that stack. sooooo easy. but now weve got negative scoring, new measurement units invented, etc. which will make for heated arguments, in which everyone will have a rule book in front of them. if youve ever argued with a first person you know they get extremely technical with rules.

2001 rules were confusing enough, 2002 rules were great, 2003 rules are going downhill fast.

lets try to keep it simple FIRST. To save everyone headaches (or is exedrin a new sponsor, lol)
