[Joe Johnson]

Preamble:

Go here to read long thread about how we got to this point and the consequences of scoring this way or that.

Read it as background and comment on it as you see fit on that thread.

We are not talking about that in this thread.

This tread is to address a very simple question:

Given what you know of the rules how will FIRST score STJB's?

STJB = the "Stack That Jack Built" a picture is shown below.




Here is the post where Jack Jones posted his picture of the STJB.


So... ...do your homework, think things through, and answer the following question:

Given the CURRENT RULES*, how will FIRST score STJB's?

1. Red 2 Tetras, Blue 1 Tetra, Blue Owns the Stack
2. Red 1 Tetras, Blue 1 Tetra, Blue Owns the Stack
3. Red 0 Tetras, Blue 1 Tetra, Blue Owns the Stack
4. Red 2 Tetras, Blue 0 Tetra, Red Owns the Stack
5. Red 1 Tetras, Blue 0 Tetra, Red Owns the Stack
6. Red 0 Tetras, Blue 0 Tetra, Neither Own the Stack
7. No Idea
8. None of the above (explain)

I think I have all the combinations possible (assuming that you have to have at least one tetra score to own the stack).

*by this I mean how rules are currently written and interpreted at this point in time, after 5 weeks of regionals, just 1 week before the championships.
