On a related note Luke, I'm curious about the rules for winning a point in FNC. From rules for referees:

1. The player has already maintained their pattern for a minimum of six catches beyond the last attack (by either the player or the opponent), and the player stops juggling without a dropped club.
2. The player continues their pattern for a minimum of six catches beyond the moment when their opponent has dropped or otherwise been put out of the point, and stops juggling without a dropped club.
3. The player continues their pattern for a minimum of three catches beyond the moment when their opponent has dropped or otherwise been put out of the point, in a clean pattern and stops juggling without a dropped club. In this case a clean pattern means no wrong ended catches, no fumbles, no trapping or holding the club other than in the hands, no wild catches or throws, all in a stable cascade with single spins.

Does rule three really achieve anything that the first two rules don't? Do judges use this rule much?
