Sounds good neil, i'm in.

What are the rules? How do you handle things like multiballs and ballsaves?

the rules are - don't lose the ball; your goal is to stall the ball quickly and let someone else lose it - so ball save wouldn't be a stall, same for multi ball unless you can lock all balls at the same time which I don't think is possible :D

So wait, if you come in on multiball, is your go over after a single drain, or after all drain and either you lock again, or drain all balls.

I believe you aren't allowed to cradle, so out if you do accidentally do it out of habit. Is that right Neil?.

Neil's game, Neil's rules, but I think in other Stallball games the rule is that you must drain down to one ball in play, and then continue as normal (where normal is trying to get the ball in a lock/mode saucer/somewhere else that 'stalls' the ball long enough for the next player to step in)
 
Ok so the rules but let’s be clear let’s not over think this :) the goal is fun :)

We will pre-determine a number of shots that are considered to be a stall, this might mean a ramp shot or a scoop shot etc. But something that gives a player to player handover enough time - This would include ball stalls if you had multiball remember score is irrelevant here. You are considered out if you lose the ball that would mean in a 2 player game the play would
move to the next player - so extra ball or ball save (or VIP in something like AS or revive in IMDN) would not mean you are out. The winner is the person who is still standing with nobody left to handover too - we go round robin until all there is a last person standing and they get the l00t!
