Granted, I think Zone Zeal had a little too much contact, but I think it struck a better balance than Diabolic Dynamics (that was the name for 2001, wasn't it?).
What we really need, however is something like 2000. That game was awesome. From what little I saw of it, I loved it. A good game should have head-to-head action, multiple ways of scoring, and an offensive/defensive mix for strategy.
PS: Also, about the metal bars to stop impact tripping: that doesn't work. The breakers will still trip, even if they are held over by a bar. It just makes it a pain to reset.

I think parts of this year were exciting. I think the preliminary rounds were great but the finals sucked. Your stradegy changed. You weren't trying to get as many points as possible, just more than the other team. this just sucked. I remember one match with beady where they grabbed the goals and that was the end of the match. little movement, low scoring, just plain boring. I think that they should keep the objective the same as the rounds go on, not change them. I think this is where last years game shone. Each team of 4 tried to do as well as possible which made it exciting, and also almost maxed out the point system. This is why people go to these things, to see what we can do, not to see who can play a waiting game and see who can grab everything the quickest and kill the game. I also think the teathers kinda took away from the game. While some times these teathers made the difference in a close game which made it exciting, many times it was just an easy way to score 10 for each team, which just inflated the scores. I liked how last year there were obsticles to get where you needed to be (teater totter and bars). I hope next year they integrate the pros of both games to make an exciting and difficult game that will keep everyone envolved and interested.
