Given the scoring nature of the game each tetra placed could literally have a 40 point swing in the scores. Working with your partners to get in a rhythm and work on who would place a tetra when and where they would place it was crucial as if there was a backup it could be devastating to your alliance.
There is not rule about which you can post about, again sorry for the low amount of options on the poll, so don't fret! I like your opinion here, as Triple Play has always held a certain place in my heart. The game itself was so strange and new that it's reception was very diverse. Some hated it and some loved it. It's good to see its positive presence here!
