Darren Im not sure if youre trying to say I dont understand when you say you personally have never had difficulty explaining the scoring system. But to be clear I said that Ive never had a first time audience get it first time. Not that i found explanation difficult or indeed couldnt get the point across.

In James here we have some one asking a reasonable question. And one to which the answer i believe lies between the lines in the rule book. As Tony himself has admitted all techniques are equal potentially but in reality some are more equal.

I really cannot add any more to the debate. Its interesting in so far as its no different to a child asking 'why' after each parental instruction. It forces the respondant to search his understanding and structure an answer.

I believe Daitan won given the prevailing scoring system. And yet acknowledge James makes a valid question. He just doesnt seem happy with the answer.

I confess despite knowing and understanding scoring I still smile when such questions are raised seeing myself asking the same questions myself in the pursuit of greater understanding. Sometimes you just have to accept thats how it works....Even if you dont agree.
