UBK: Forfeit.

I usually think forfeiture as a penalty is draconian. Here, I am not so sure it is. Being so close to the edge, Granstedt created this problem.

If the dice spin and spin, I am sympathetic -- I had an issue with this in Charlotte 2025, I was playing Petko on a stream, and was forced/asked to use a Crisloid board that caused a lot of dice spinning. I got low on time, not nearly this low, and it was becoming a little bit of an issue.

As Granstedt's opponent, I am fine with granting temporal relief. However...

grabbing a spinning die that has not settled is egregiously bad.

Forfeit.
