Re: What do you think of the design of the game?

I think this is one of the most objective, mature, and thought-out posts so far regarding this game. Initially, I bet we all had the same thought progression:

- upon seeing the game in kickoff - "this is way too simple, why on earth did they do that"
- upon playing with the Trackball and inspecting the rules closer - "this is a horrible game, why on earth would they do this and this and this, way too complicated and complex"

Now, taking a step back and approaching the challenge of the game head-on, I think more of us are heading into the lines of thought you brought up. Although I disagree with you on one point - I personally think the audience will get a huge kick out of seeing 3.5' balls hurling through the air (in the event that teams take that route)

Re: What do you think of the design of the game?

There are a couple more things I would've like. Corner banking or a variety of hurdle. I'm thinking like the barrier in the 2001 game that teams could use to drive under, climb over or have the teeter totter ramp to go up and down with on the turns.
