Re: Who has successfully THROWN ringers on to the rack yet?

Quote:
Have any ringers been negated by human players?
For this reason, throwing ringers towards the rack when there are a good number of ringers already on the rack is quite dangerous! The reason is two ringers of the same color on the same spider leg equals no ringers on the spider leg!

To answer the question, I saw a total of probably 5 or 6 ringers scored by human players during GSR (practice matches, qualification matches, and elims). This is actually a pretty low percentage considering how many human players were trying this strategy. So, I would say less than 5% of the thrown ringers were successfully scored on the rack through the act of being thrown.

151 and 166 had the two most successful human players at GSR, in my opinion. Our team hasn't kept track of human player scoring this year, so I don't have any actual statistics.
