Do they win first place?
« on: March 08, 2010, 05:10:52 AM »
Two teams battling it out for the League Championship. It comes down to the last night. Who ever wins 2 games out three, take the winnings. The teams split the first two games.

Third Game. A bowler gets injured after bowling the 7th Frame. No one is there to replace the person. Person has an average of 150.

Based on USBC rules that person gets 15 pins for each remaing frames. The bowler has a score of 135 in the 7th. Finishing score for the person is 180. That person's team wins last game by 20.

Do they win the league championsip?

Why would the bowler receive 15 pins a frame rather than 14? I guess it wouldn't make a difference either way but I think there's no doubt his team would win based on all rules that I'm aware of.

Because 1/10th of 150 is 15.  Why would he only receive 14?

"When a team member must leave during a game due to injury, how is the remainder of their game scored? What if they must leave in the middle of a frame after making only their first delivery?

Rule 108a provides that if a team member is unable to complete a game due to disability, injury or emergency and another team member is not available, the team shall count the actual score for the frames bowled plus one-tenth of the league’s absentee score for each of the remaining frames in the game.

When a team member only makes their first delivery in a frame and is unable to complete the game, they can only be credited with the number of pins knocked down on that delivery for the frame. The team member gets credit for all completed and partial frames bowled plus one-tenth of their absentee score for additional frames missed."


To answer the original question, yes, that team wins the championship

It IS next year!

He would get 14 pins a frame, because his blind average is 140.

Well I tried to screw it up intentionally.

You guys caught my flaw.

It is actually 14 per frame and they would still win.

When I wrote this I forget to change the score they won by (It was too high - need to proof read). It should have been a "2".

Poor attempt.
