Guess I'm not in the same boat then. Yes, the pyramid was a pain. Yes, the
thirty point club (And
dump club) is smaller than it could have been, but that doesn't make the pyramid as a challenge any less awesome. It was amazing to see how many different ways to scale the pyramid were, and how effective some of the methods were. Seeing the likes of 1114 or 67 rocket their way up the pyramid for a quick dump (Or I suppose spit...), a slow and steady 1810 ascent with a surefire dump (Shout-out to a local team), or even the wild acrobatics of 148 swinging about up and down proved to be one of the most inspiring sights of the season yet.
And the strategic decision of driving under the pyramid vs having a tall FCS was incredible. It lead to a lot of variation in design, a bit of head banging for not thinking of going under the pyramid, and made driving quite the challenge. I loved it.
