Sorry the meaning of what I wrote was unclear.

Would you please share the precedent ruling where you found Quarterly of six was disallowed registration?
I was only able to find specific reference to per pale and quarterly for 4 divisions in our marshalling rulings.

"this" referred to the sentence immediately precedeing the <snip> (The source he looked at http://www.queens.cam.ac.uk/page-253 was marshalled arms for Elizabeth Woodville "Quarterly of six Luxenburg, Baux, Cyprus, Ursins, StPol and Woodville.") not the original question replied to in the <snip> well below it (Is quarterly of six permitted in SCA heraldry?).
 
I had hoped the conlcuding paragraph made that clear (As still others have discussed, the two-tictured field division "Party of six" is allowed.  Displaying what looks like independent arms on them is not.)  Sorry my writing style was mis-leading.

Post Scriptum: Those who followed the link saw I greatly abbreviated the blazon.  In full it was:
 

Quarterly of six:

Argent, a lion rampant double-queued gules crowned or (for Luxembourg); 
Quarterly,
i and iv, Gules, an estoile argent;
ii and iii, France Ancient (for Baux); 
Barry of ten argent and azure, a lion rampant gules (for Cyprus); 
Gules, three bends argent, on a chief per fess argent and or a rose gules (for Ursins); 
Gules, three pales vair, on a chief or a label of five points azure (for StPol); 
Argent, a fess and a canton conjoined gules (for Woodville).
