Just to muddy the waters, on my tarps I add a second tie-loop at each ridge tie-out point, but moved back under the tarp and facing inward. I can then tie a line between them, if I wish, to take the strain off the tarp ridge if I tighten the line, or to act as a clothes line if I leave a little sag in it. Obviously, drip prevention measures are called for.
