Re: Serious question about defense No Flaming!
Is it legal? Yes. There is no rule prohibiting this type of play.
Is it Graciously Professional? Yes. This is a valid defensive tactic, and a legitimate play. There is no problem with teams that play competitively and hard, as long as they behave within the rules.
Is it smart? No. Update #4, Example #1 spells it out. All Red has to do is push Blue hard enough to get just one wheel into the loading zone, and Blue gets hit with a 30-point penalty. That is too big a risk to take in this game.
You can be legal and be graciously professional, but still be dumb. Play smart. Stay away from the other alliance loading zones, and just concentrate on using your own zones as fast as you can.
