Additionally, I was curious about the definition of the word "contact" in rule 3.1.5.2 (climb points). Lastly, can one alliance use the other alliance's colored frisbees?
Seems to me that contact means touch?

An alliance can use the other alliance's frisbees, though they hold no value to you than a regular frisbee.

3.1.51 DISC Points
...Additionally, for a DISC to be considered SCORED in an ALLIANCE’S PYRAMID GOAL, it must correspond to the PYRAMID color.
Additionally, if you are to utilized the other alliance's frisbees, you will have to pick up off the floor, as the frisbees start behind the alliance walls.
