Two dog cast, A and B are struck in for 100 {1st} and 75 {2nd}in that order. Dog B quits and receives minus points. He then goes back in and is struck again...remember, we only have one set of strike points the track has been kept open. He goes back in for 50. Why 50??? Because two dogs have already been struck. 1st and 2nd have been used. Only 3rd and 4th remain, so he gets 3rd strike because it was the third time a dog has been struck. If he quits again, or lets say the A dog quits, you don't move the dog that was struck third all the way up to first and give the dog that was struck on the same track the fourth time a second. Eventually you get down to where only 4th strike is left if they don't minus out.
The biggest thing about all this is that you are cheating other casts when you allow more points to be counted than are available to receive.
Is this a UKC rule question or a PKC rule question? Because when you say "remember, we only have one set of strike points".....that is a PKC rule. In PKC, once a strike position is used, it is not available again until a new strike is open. But in UKC, once a strike position is vacated "minused", it becomes available again.
This is a UKC forum, I will use UKC rules here.
