> Would the game end after two unintentional passes? Good point. In principle I would say so. To avoid problems with final counting, after 2 passes the game should be completed in traditional mode (without Frisbee simulation elements).
One might say that such a final should be executed only after 4 (unintentional) passes but I see the problem when playing on a "normal" server.
