The first Nomic Bocce match.

Rules for today:
  1. All balls that don't hit a "sheep" are not counted, but remain on the field
  2. If 4 points are scored, then players swap scores before adding the 4 points to the winner of the end.
  3. All balls must move "left" at some point before stopping. If it doesn't then the ball becomes the other player's.
  4. If a ball is in shaddow at the time of scoring, then it counts double.
  5. The lower stripes of the 4 balls must go left and the higher 2 bocces must go right.
  6. The player with more points must throw the boche while facing the opposite direction in any manner.
  7. The "bounce off a sheep" rule was repealed.
Simon won 13-3 (due to a 9 point end with some non right bouncing shadow balls), then Rob won 3-2 when time ran out.

Note: The "sheep" are part of the art installation that Rob and I have named "The Sheep of Solitude". This is a collection of ruins from old buildings lying on the grass as an artwork near government house in the botanic gardens of Sydney.
