Talking Re: The burning question: How many ringers can your team REALISTICALLY score?

Im agreeing with team 25. To pick scoring more than 6++ is highly unlikely and only a few will do it realistically and consistently.
The reason: Unlike 2005, you can only grab ONE at a time! AND once its on the rack, you cant put more on the same spot. Imagine if you could, teams could go back and forth to the same spot and be consistent. However, trying to make rows, etc. may be more difficult.

Although this is all based on opinion, this poll still offers a lot in terms of seeing what teams are thinking about and possibilities.

We chose 5-6 max per round. During our practice, we can sometimes do more, however, with only us on our field. Im looking at 4-5 (thinking that's good) in a matchup of 6 teams on the field. Once again, because we cant hord these things, it limits what teams can do.
A good example is team 71 in 2005. they scored as much as 12 tetras that I personally saw, BUT could grab 4 at a time. They would not be able to do that much if they could only do 1 at a time, going back and forth.

Just my opinion......
