Hurdle Question

[Vanquish]

Rule <G11> states "Each TRACKBALL that HURDLES its own FINISH LINE will earn 8 points (2 points for CROSSING the FINISH LINE - re Rule <G10> - and a 6 point bonus, yielding 8 points total)."

This gives the impression that hurdling a ball is only worth 8 points, and then on the very next page of the Game section of the manual, page 6. There is a chart which specifically states that the trackball hurdling the overpass is 8 points, not 6.

clarification?

It's been clarified (simplified) in Update 1. Please be sure you are always reading the most current version of the manual.

Herding the ball under the overpass is worth 2 points, hurdling it over is worth the same 2 points plus the bonus of 6 points, for a total of 8 points.

If the ball goes over the overpass, it also goes over the finish line.
