Speaking of goofy local rules, we used to see time limits written like this:
"Time limit is 1:15 with no new inning after 1:10. Once an inning starts it will be completed."
Never did figure out what the 1:15 was for.
But the corker was a tournament earlier this year:
"Time limit is 1:10 with no new inning after 1:20."
Huh? Ok, but there is no new inning after 3 hours, either...
Sometimes you wonder what people are actually thinking.
