You wouldn't. Your assignors would tell you to speed up the game. And if you were doing the JV game, the varsity officials would give you some 'advice'. [knowing you meant to type in blue]

One finger, one finger, clenched fist, clenched fist, clenched fist.

Screw it. I'm sticking with base ten (or base six, in this case).

I just use the base that is equivalent to the current number I'm reporting. Much eaiser just hold up one finger for every foul.
