Due to some dependencies between these scenarios, it may be helpful to read the whole text to get my meaning, before answering any.

There is a slight difference in wording between A and B:
A: the definition of “scored” (which allows not being “upon a goalpost”),
B: the Scoring section “A tube that is scored upon a goalpost”
Can the section B “upon a goalpost” be disregarded, so that every tube that meets the longer full definition of “scored” counts for 2 points? -
Each tube is either scored, or not scored, so it can’t be counted more than once for the 2 points, right?
-
Consider one tube scored on the wall goal, (as in picture in rules under definition “Scored”); Now consider a stack of **six **additional tubes adjacent to it on the floor, with the top of the stack touching the scored tube on the wall goal.
**Five **of the tubes on the stack are not touching the foam floor, but are in a touch-chain leading up to the scored wall goal tube, so these five count as ‘scored’, right? -
In #3 (if right, else disregard), all the five scored tubes plus the wall goal tube contribute toward ownership of the goal, right?
-
Consider that the mobile goals may be moved to be adjacent to other goals. A stack of tubes on two adjacent goals may qualify as being scored on more than one goal. In the case where there is a mix of tube colors, how is goal ownership assigned?
Here is an example:
5A: A goal has scored on it two blue tubes, and one of them touches one of four red tubes scored on another goal. By the touch-rule, all 6 tubes count as scored by relationship to both goals.
Here are some potential rule interpretations I have brainstormed:
A: Each goal is considered in turn; all tubes that could possibly be assigned to that goal contribute to ownership of that goal.
In Example 5A: blue owns both goals. This is “winner takes all”.
B: Each tube is considered in turn, and assigned to contribute to the ownership of only one goal.
In Example 5A: goal ownership is split, blue owns a goal, red owns the other
C: other?
Thanks for consideration.
