Wrong-show penalty notation re-checked

The worked scoring worksheet on the how-to-play chapter now labels the wrong-show penalty as a common-rule variation rather than as a fixed rule value. The change is intended to make the difference between rule-of-the-rulebook and common-rule-variation explicit at the worksheet level.

Filed 2026-07-21 Editorial review No code or rule pattern changed

What changed

  • The scoring worksheet now uses the phrase "common-rule variation" on the row labels for case 03 and case 04.
  • The how-to-play chapter notes the rule-vs-variation distinction in the scoring reference section.
  • No change to the rule pattern itself.
