Re: Is there a maximum number of stacked tetras?
According to the game section of the manual:

Quote:
STACKED – A TETRA is STACKED when it is placed on top of a GOAL or on top of another STACKED TETRA. To be considered STACKED, the TETRA must be properly seated on the subordinate GOAL or TETRA such that all four apex connectors are within six inches of the SUPPORTING structure. Due to the GOAL and TETRA geometries, a TETRA may occasionally not completely “seat” on the GOAL or subordinate TETRA, and remain precariously positioned on top of the structure. Such TETRAS are not considered STACKED. A TETRA is not considered STACKED if it is touching a ROBOT of the same alliance.
The supporting structure is not necessarily the goal. If the tetra is stacked on top of another, the first tetra is the supporting structure. As long as the apex is within six inches from the first tetra, it counts.
