The first Harry Potter flick is on ABC Family right now and the Quidditch scene is on right now. I really don't understand this game at all. The concept of Quidditch is so unbalanced.
Scoring a goal is worth 10 pointes. Catching the snitch is worth a whopping 150 points and at the same time ends the game.
What's the fucking point of even playing most of the game? As soon as one team catches the snitch they will automatically take a commanding lead and end the gaming, removing any chance the other team would have to catch up.
Here's two examples:
Team A: 50 points
Team B: 70 points
Team A catches the snitch and goes up to 200 points and the game ends. They win.
Team A: 10 points
Team B: 200 points
Assuming this situation, why should Team A even bother trying to catch the snitch at this point? Even if they do get the 150 points and go up to 160 points, they still loose because Team B has 200 and Team A just ended the game by catching the snitch.
This game is very cool in concept (and fun to watch in the movies) but it makes so fucking sense at all. Only a woman could think up a sport that's so unbalanced.
