In ether case the "tie" is accounted for as safe or out, not do overs as you accused 56 of promoting.
RIF, 0-fer-4 Is it snowing there? How is the powder?
SAump accused 56 of promoting safes in posts #8, #17, #20 and #28; not outs, nor do-overs, rockhead.
SAump hinted 56 would be better off promoting do-overs in posts #14 and #29, rather than safes, boulderbrain.
SAump was the promoting safes or outs, over do-overs in posts #14 and #29, not 56, agateface.
SAump read your post about "ties going to the umpire" in post #11 and #35 and wonders why CO ump can't follow along, cementlips.

Someone boo CO ump! 1, 2, 3. BOOOO!
