The question I had was this: How would you call this if the team that hit the ball still could legally play the ball and the ball went flat, making it unhittable?
If the ball went up on the first or second team hit and then went "POP" because of those wacky nails, it would be a replay as soon as another game ball is available. If it happerns on the third team contact, the ball is dead (DOHHHH!) and the rally is awarded to the opponent just as though the ball hit a normal ceiling following the third contact. Sounds like the receiving team needs to learn to pass without hitting that particular ceiling!!!!
