Any loophole is a loopgoal, Part 2

Q. Hungry Cattle question: is there a penalty for making a mess?

Despite the fact that it's not in the spirit of the thing (like stackable sheep), suppose we catapulted 3 kilos of rice at the trough, technically half filling the trough but also half filling the square around it?

I don't think we're going to do that, but we might consider an overspill in case our rice dispenser is misaligned.

To ask another way: are there more points available for a mess-free delivery? Trough more than half full, no rice on the mat?

A. Nope, no penalty for making a mess. No bonus for a clean delivery either. It's a bit scattergun, but there ya go ;-)
