We just didn't want to take that chance. We discussed the amount of defense and how difficult it would be to make it to the feeder stations. The other factor, as mentioned before, was how many shots we thought would be missed by the opposing alliance. We were betting that there will be a lot of frisbees in close proximity to each other and/or at the end walls, and designed our intake accordingly.
