Re: UpsideDown Frisbees

Another ultimate player here, completely agree with what ehfeinberg has been saying. Because ultimate is played more by the robotics population than basketball we'll see more "hail mary"s make it into the goals, but not much more. I wouldn't count on it being something you see every game; far from it, in fact.

Also, the 5 point goal is very misleading if you've ever played disc golf. In disc golf, if you hit the pole with the chains, you're pretty much guaranteed that it will fall in the goal. Here, that is not the case because of the different dimensions and the fact that a robot will be throwing them.
