Re: The Noodle Agreement

Sorry, Jonathan, that's at the 21-second mark--nothing over the wall after 20 seconds remaining.

I mentioned this to some of our other mentors. Here's my take:

I don't care--particularly--if a team decides that they will accept every offer of a Noodle Agreement or decline every offer of a Noodle Agreement, or decide on a case-by-case basis. What I care about is that if a team accepts an offer, they need to follow through. If a team declines an offer, they need to make that clear from the outset.

Long story short, whatever your stance, make it clear and stick to it. Do NOT backstab your opponents. Do NOT backstab your partners. They'll both thank you later.
