Um, not true. Once you have placed a ringer onto a spider leg, that leg cannot be scored upon by the opposing alliance. It's value can be negated by the placing of a spoiler, but once it has been scored by the other team, you can't
ever get it back for your alliance.
Please refer to rule
<G15>:
<G15> Double RINGERS -
a RINGER can not be placed on a SPIDER LEG on which a RINGER is already HANGING.
If a ROBOT HANGS a RINGER on a SPIDER LEG that already has a HANGING RINGER from the opposing ALLIANCE, the second RINGER will be ignored when calculating the match score. If a ROBOT HANGS a RINGER on a SPIDER LEG that already has a HANGING RINGER from their own ALLIANCE (for example, to prevent a SPOILER from being placed on the SPIDER LEG), the two RINGERS will cancel each other and both will be ignored when determining if the SPIDER LEG is SCORED.
