Re: Who Owns This Goal

Our team discovered the same configuration potential a few days ago. You can create it easily in the following manner: stack a red tetra on a blue tetra; rotate the assembly 90 degrees so that is it on its "side"; and place the resulting rotated assembly on top of a goal. The configuration shown in Alan's picture will result.

With regard to the interpretation of ownership, I believe that Keith is correct, and for the reasons (and specific rules) that he cited. The blue tetra is invalid. The red tetra is "STACKED," and "OWNS" the goal.
