Help with Towers!!
Hi. I did the bridge building events back in 2009 and I did very good.First place in a state competition. After a year hiatus, I am back to scioly and building towers. I need some help though. Our team doesn't have much funds and we have no rulebooks. Could someone post the Division C rules just for towers? It would be SOO appreciated.
Also does anyone have good scores for Division C and B towers with the regional scoring? Thank for helping a new member out!

Unfortunately, we are unable to post any rules on the website. You can, however, buy them in the SOINC store.nTvarify wrote:Hi.

Re: Help with Towers!!
Look at "Team score sheet/checklist" and "Event score sheet/spreadsheet". You should be able to figure out what is required... There is a min./max.nTvarify wrote:Hi.

Re: Help with Towers!!
If your team has paid the fee to participate your coach automatically gets at least ONE rule book. They are authorized to copy pages from the book as needed for the team. Talk to your coach.

If you can't post the rules can someone at least post the parameters?

Re: Help with Towers!!
This is my first year doing towers. Can anyone explain to me how to brace the legs of a tower properly. I am still confused about the process. Thanks.
