Human Player Strategy

What's the protocol for human players moving pieces back and forth. Can they only move one piece at a time (i.e. either a grey tote or a pool noodle) or can they grab as many pieces as they can carry and bring those back to the human player station to load?

What do the rules say? Is there a rule that restricts you in this regard?

Re: Human Player Strategy

I looked for an answer to this very question last night and did not see anything in the manual that allows or restricts you from shoving all the bins to the player station at the start of the match.
If anybody has info to the contrary please chime in.

Re: Human Player Strategy

Be careful. In 2013 there were no rules initially regarding stacking frisbees on top of the feeder slots. However, at multiple regionals we were told that it was illegal. I would assume that it is ok to put them in a stack behind you but be prepared with a backup plan.

Re: Human Player Strategy

Since there are only two human player stations, I'd imagine the third human player will be moving totes and noodles where they are needed. So stockpiling in the human player station might be unnecessary.

Re: Human Player Strategy

I also can't find any rule(s) that state human players can't start moving totes toward the human player zone before auto ends.
