No, they most emphatically were NOT. Not in any way, shape, or form.
1997 was played in similar manner to 2007 and 2011: place tubes on scoring structure. Only... it was 1v1v1 on a hexagonal field.
1999, better known as Double Trouble, was 2v2 on a square field. Take your "floppies" (think a flat bean-bag chair full of styrofoam peanuts with some velcro), raise 'em over 8' from the floor and hold 'em there at the end of match. Move large flat "puck" around the field and park on it for more points (2x for puck position, not sure about parking on it).
