We were the victims of the rule at Peachtree and the beneficiary yesterday at Palmetto. After the call at Peachtree, we discussed the interpretation and realized that the approach that First has taken is the only way to consistently enforce the rule. The GDC certainly does not want to make the referees determine whether or not a game piece provides assistance to a ramp, so the mere presence of a tube under the ramp is grounds to disallow points.

I am surprised that the placement of a tube under a ramp bot (before deployment) is not used as a tactic to at least hinder some of the really good ramps, such as 1319.
