Re: Einstein?

I would like to mention that there is also a very large factor that has not been brought up about why the 190, 987, 177 alliance would be much more reluctant to pick a replacement.

Every situation, every alliance is unique. In our case it was our ramps. Due to their design, there is a very specific way in which the partners must climb. Prior to picking any partners, we first brought them to our pit and ensured that they could not only drive up us, but that we could lift them. And then we practiced it.

Bringing in a fresh team that was inexperienced at it was a risk we would have taken only in the most dire of circumstances.

The situation is different for every alliance, and every alliance must make the decision for themselves. I would like to think that no alliance on Einstein would purposely use this strategy as a means to win the championships.
