Gin positions

In Response To: Gin positions (Bob Koca)

I think a toned-down version of that would be an excellent rule:

At any point during this roll calling exercise, the gin claimer - perhaps finally starting to doubt the veracity of their statement - should be allowed to lose face by terminating it, and the players resume random rolling from that point onward, the dog now quite possibly thousands of times more likely to win(!) One would also hope that any 'false gin claiming errors' were factored in to the players PR result.

Rule writers take note.
