Thanks for the re-confirming n=0 when the first balls passes.

From the way I read it, it would be that n=1 when the first ball is scored, as that is now the "# unexpired balls currently in station" (per DOGMA definition, since I thought "currently" is triggred when it is scored) or per rule G17 that n=1 since that ball has "passed through the ball counter".

I think I've been reading way too many contracts as work lately!!!

In the end, I can see the intent is n=0 for the first ball, so it is what it is.
