I can also see a big difference in the point value of different items, or the same point value for a very large number of items (soccer balls and goals from '02, and the boxes and ramp from last year) I dont think they would design a game that favors verterans too much, they need to give the rookies a good shot at winning or they'd just see the same old faces at nationals. With the varrying point values, it gives teams, new and old, a large variation in the strategies. Also, I forsee a very easy game to visualize, score-wize. I remember hearing somewhere that they were going to try to keep it spectator-friendly and with any game too complicated, it gets the crowd lost too easily. Anywhoo. Thats my $0.02, bringing the total value of this post up to a whopping $0.04.
