Re: Aerial Assist Discussion Thread

I have only read seven pages of this, is someone already pointed this out, forgive me. Until then get out your tinfoil hats.

I really think we are all missing out on a major clue, a clue that is going to be vital to the game. Watch this video from about two minutes in and on. You may have missed this line but it is so important.

"We are doing this a bit differently this year, making changes from kickoff to championships this year"

What changes have been made this year thus far? This game is exactly the same as every other year, with no organizational differences championship wise. We also don't have an endgame this year, and for such an easy challenge, this seems odd.

Think about it, the only challenge is team coordination, everything else is just pure driver twitch skills. Now go back your pictures of the truss from kickoff, I know you took them, that thing is hefty. We had two or three people hanging from it at the Upper Darby Kickoff, no sag.

Why would they bother to build such a hefty truss that could be replaced with a taught rope? We believe the reason is because there is an endgame we don't know about yet. Now, look at the extremely detailed rules about height requirements for the goalie, these are super detailed, yet so horrible.

No one is going to be able to play affective defense with 6 inch diameter pole that cannot be articulated. Having a dedicated goalie will be a drag on the rest of the team (missing out on tri-assists). I believe, personally, the lack of a height limit will be extended to the incoming endgame in which you must attempt a hang.

A hang? We had a hang last year? We did, but it sucked, those pyramids were $@#$ near impossible to climb to the top, everyone just did level one holds. They were a major disappointment. Why not give us a chance to retry it.

A Mid-season added endgame challenge seems so plausible right now.
