Series definition

[Tony]

We are all used to seeing the honor scores for a normal 3 games series and I am curious about how that applies to scores when bowled in a 4 game league set.

I have seen at times people use the first 3 games of a 4 game set as if it were a regular 3 game series but I am not sure if that is the correct application or if it is does the back 3 games also "count" as a 3 game series. After all they are both 3 games in sequence.
Just curious how that works.

Guess I should have bowled the crappy game last, if they allowed the last 3 I would have had a 700. Guess I better do that next time out in the wed night league where we only bowl 3 !
Still had a 617 for the front 3, so I'll take that.
