Vex High Stakes Skills Challenge Clarification: RSC4

Here’s a question about the placement of rings in High Stakes Robot Skills Challenge.

So, there are 10 blue rings given that are supposed to be top rings only, but they must be placed on top of a red ring right?

Since there’s only 10 stakes and one of them is the high stake (which only has space for one ring), how am I supposed to place both a red ring and a blue ring on the high stake?

I understand that each of the other 9 blue rings could be placed on top of red rings on the other stakes, but there would be one leftover blue ring, unless it itself is placed on the high stake without a red ring under.

you don’t. the first person to put the right on the high stake (unless descored) has it on the high stake.

Right now, that extra blue ring is just completely useless. Hopefully they meant to allow it on the high stake.

Was there ever an update to this rule, or is the 10th blue ring still useless?

I believe that extra blue ring on the high stake is an exception, they should update the manual soon.
