Re: Climbing and dumping not winning?

We climbed and dumped in every one of our elimination rounds. We also had a three to four disc autonomous in those rounds. It still wasn't enough and we got eliminated in the semi-finals. When you are up against two solid shooters and a good defender it is hard to beat unless your teammates are fast and amazingly accurate.

Another part is that the game pieces are consistent, but not o
100%. We only got all four discs in auto once. Sometimes we only got two. Those twelve points make or break the game.

You could also argue that the game isn't named right, I would have called it "ultimate frisbee shooting, and maybe climb that big tower if you want a good engineering challenge but are okay with losing from time to time"

That doesn't have the same ring to it as "Ultimate Ascent" though does it?
