I told her only even numbers divisible by 2 and odd numbers not divisible by 2 were OK, plus there was an exception to allow 0 and 00 as long as there wasn't a 0 and a 00 on the same team. I then said I thought the rule was different for games played on days that didn't end in "Y" unless you were playing by international rules. She looked very puzzled.
Er, um, I think you forgot to to add that in these cases, each player must alternate O & D with the other player, so that only one is playing offense while the other plays defense and vice versa. Otherwise, it won't work out. Hope that isn't too confusing...
