In general, if the subject is brought up and no progress is made in three shots each, you have a stalemate. Call a third party over if you can't figure it out on your own.At WHAT point is the rule in place?
After the 2nd nudge or the 32nd nudge?
Don't need to make the game more complicated.
I claim that the current rule is more complicated:
It's touching a thread! Is not -- that's a gnat's wing. Is not!
You didn't call it frozen. Did too! No, you have to call it right before I shoot. No, it's been frozen for three shots. Yeah, but you didn't call it again.
Just because it's what you're used to doesn't mean it's simpler.
