3. U-trip does not use the "last out CR" I believe NSA is the only org that allows that. Some tournies may modify that and allow the CR to be the last out if you are batting your entire roster. I have seen that in ASA and USSSA tournies.

Using the term last out for a courtesy runner is wrong. It is the last person to completed their turn at bat if the are batting the line up and allowing CR's in ASA and should be everywhere else.

This was how it was explained to me.

If you use last out you could end up with a on deck batter on base and now you got real problems. # 5 batter is the last out, the team bats around to the # 3 you gets a hit single, you put number 5 in to CR, # 4 gets a single now you have # 5 on second, # 4 on first and # 5 due up, now what?
