In the room I came up in this shi*t would not have been tolerated. If you don’t set a time to quit then you play until the loser quits, plain and simple. I find it real hard to believe that you can quit up and still get games.
I'm all for letting the loser decide when its done, but I've seen some things in my poolhall that make me second guess this idea.
For example:
There are a couple of younger guys who come in and woof at everyone else offering up the world. I've seen them give people the last 4, breaks, and BIH after the break for large sets. I had one of them let me pick my weight(fish 2 balls out of the return at random). One was the 7-ball and the other was the 2-ball. Mind you these are wild. I'm pretty sure I can run 2 balls fairly often.
Now, in both cases, the kid giving the weight gets called out on it and loses sets. During the whole time he's losing, he's whining and complaining about how no body can give that kind of weight and win. I may not agree with it in general, but I'll quit those kind of gamblers a winner every single time.
I'm not about to give them a chance to play it back since they're gonna try to lessen the weight to their favor now, or just complain enough that you won't give them a chance to win it back.
If you want action, act accordingly. You want to woof, be prepared to get called. If you can't win with the weight you offer, don't gamble!
