What I mean by "hundreds of times" is the fact that knowing when and when not to rotate is more of an issue than what you see in your peripheral vision. It really takes that time when you are so used to working 2 Person on a regular basis because you tend to think of when not to move rather than when to move. It takes those hundreds of times to get a complete feel for what you are really supposed to do. And when you work with different people often, that feel takes even more time because all officials might not be able to recognize the rotation you are making which can stunt your understanding of the mechanics as well. Of course it is not rocket science, but it is something you have to work at and experience over and over again. Even last year I was still learning about more and more things about rotations and I have been working 50+ 3 Person games a year for over 10 years.
