Re: Durability of tetras

So to revive this old thread, how do you feel the tetras held up? I know that while our team was at FLR we only broke 2 tetras, at GLR we broke 3 (taking into account that we were stacking a lot more) and at Nat's we only broke 1. I noticed that FIRST wasn't using the same color clovers as the white ones that they supplied us with. I cant help but wonder if the color that they used to dye the clovers affected how they handled stress... possibly FIRST was on to this because many of the clovers at Nat's were either white or made from a different material as the original ones, they seemed to stretch more rather than brake

Also, at GLR the tetras that broke when we stacked them were not counted toward the score for our match, shouldn't this fall under field malfunction and thus we be awarded our points? it never really mattered much with the outcome of matches, either we were ahead by enough to not have to worry about it or behind so far that it wouldn't have helped anyway..
