I like a well designed "memory stage", but some MD's will take this to a whole new level. I agree with Gorilla that hard stages and gotcha stages are different. I like when the MD gives plenty of options to stage design, and I am always ok with a new challenge. (only one plate visible on a spiner, shooting the star with top plates covered, etc.) but when the MD does this on every stage it really hurts new shooters and gets frustrating for others. Just something for MD's to consider before doing 9-10 F@$%er Stages.
