Re: Feeding litter into can from human player station?

To the second poster's point:

To the contrary, this idea may be the BEST strategy for two reasons:

1. It's valid to do what the OP suggests as the scores are assessed at the end of the match. So long as the noodle is in the green can and the green can is on top of a grey tote and that grey tote is fully supported by the scoring platform, then the OP's idea is totally valid. The rules dont' say the order of operations, just that the green can needs to be scored. A noodle in a green can not properly scored doesn't count.

2. It will be awfully hard to get the noodle into the recycling container on top of the stack of grey bins. So, why not just put the really light foam into the big green can before putting the can on top of the stack?
