Re: Week 1 Impressions of Rack 'N Roll

The trouble is, the only reason a team would spoil your row is if it is seven or longer in length- and therefore extends into their viewable portion of rack. A keeper only protects that row if it is placed where the opposite alliance will want to spoil- or in other words, the HARDEST POSSIBLE SPOT TO PLACE IT! The opposite side of the rack.

The keeper's special advantage is lost on this year's game. You score a keeper, and you're just one ringer up effectively. Nice, but not super special.
