From where I stood on Archimedes during some high-scoring matches, it appears to me that the goals will hold enough discs. 65 in the center should be enough. The discs will start to interfere with chains, and some will protrude a bit, and of course counting them by hand after the match will be lots of fun.

The IRI is extremely rich in volunteer talent. They will find ways to make the field take everything that teams can throw at it.

I believe in intuition and inspiration. Imagination is more important than knowledge. For knowledge is limited, whereas imagination embraces the entire world, stimulating progress, giving birth to evolution. It is, strictly speaking, a real factor in scientific research.
