What specifically is considered "throwing a game"? I understand in theory that one shouldnt intentionally lose to keep another player from possibly winning. However lots of other things have been called "throwing a game".
As has been stated many times, people have different skill levels, and they may go out instead of letting lowman get hit. How do you distinguish between a novice, a good player having a bad day, and a thrown game?
And is playing for second also game throwing? In the scenario where 2nd is a good 70+ points higher than low and hits 3rd & 4th when possible to ensure advancement as a 2nd, is that the same thing as throwing a game?
I have been accused of throwing games, even games I won, so I want to know what this rule means (I don't honestly believe it's possible for the 1st place player to be guilty of throwing a game, but it's been said).
