I thought it was a great way to make you think of how to work with your oppenent's stragety (and your allience partner) instead of just trying to get as many points as possible. I did not find the scoring system hard to understand at all. I only had trouble keeping score when I could not see those tape-measurer teathers on the ground.

I did not like those when I could not see them.
