What would that rule be? Anybody who just starts blatantly knocking over stacks is already in danger of getting a red card.

The great peril of this game is that one little mistake can lose the match. If you haven't tried it already, knock over a six tote stack with a can on it, and watch in horror how far the can goes. At some point, we'll see a can fly over the step (adding a six point foul to the already grievous injury), and I'll bet the other alliance will even use it to score.

Who could tell whether a quarter spin in the wrong direction that knocks over a stack is an accident, or on purpose? Accidents are going to happen, and we've all got to keep graciously, professionally cool.
