Re: YMTC: Bluabot "Descores" Red Tetra

I say the red tetra counts ... just because Dave said it didn't and he is probably fast asleep by now ... I hope
I don't think this changes anything. The update specifically says that blue is only considered the descorer if red is rammed, and knocks blue tetras off.

It doesn't say a single word about a cascading chain of events causing the red tetra to fall off.

Unless blue was physically touching the red tetra and knocked it off, it doesn't make a single bit of difference--red was the one that actually did knock it off.

While it may be logical to assume that this is true, the rules do not say a single word about it, and therefore we have to go by the definition of "STACKED"
