Survivor Challenge-Building a Tower

This week the challenge wasn't quite as easy as we all first thought. The challenge was to build the tallest tower (to stand on its own) using only marshmellows and spaghetti pasta. It turns out the pasta wasn't that strong and could break easily so we really had to work as a team and be resilient when our ideas didn't work the first time. We all had a few different attempts at making our base strong enough to hold the rest of the height of the tower and here is what we came up with.

The scores are now pretty even as teams are learning how to work together when things get tough.
The Golden Bell Tui's and Green Pythons are in the lead on 40 points. Followed closely by the Mighty Eagles on 35 and the Lightening Strikes on 30.

How do you think you would have built a tower out of marshmellows and pasta?
