Do different bowling alleys score differently?

The one I went to in Santa Monica goes something like this..if you get a spare or a strike in one frame..the amount of points you get in that frame = 10+the amount of pins you get in the FIRST roll of the following frame.

So if you get a strike in frame 1, and then 6/2 in the 2nd frame, you'll get 10 + 6 + 6 + 2 = 24 points.

However this place I went to last night it's 10 + the total you get on the following frame, so you'd get..

10 + (6+2) + (6+2) = 26.

At least that's how I think it worked..
 
Strike = 10 pins + next two balls
Spare = 10 pins + next ball
Your example of strike, 8 would yield a score of 18+8 for 26.

Ah, that's probably what it was..I had thought a spare and strike were equivalent if the preceding frame was neither a spare or strike.

Which bowling alley has spiders Syringer? :evil:

I missed the spider thing.

Any chance we can control the spider thing 🙂

I don't get it, I looked at some of the linked threads but where's the story? Or did he edit it out?

So I looked it up on UrbanDictionary. I got it now. I still wanna read the story though heh...

Don't push me, Bitch. I know where you live. 😉
 
OPs treating strikes and spares the same, if I'm inferring his original post correctly. Strike yields 2 extra balls worth double, spare means 1 ball is worth double.

Unless spiders score differently because they have extra legs.

That's weird. I went bowling tonight. Yes, all bowling alleys bowl the same.

The highlight of the night wasn't my score, but that Tom Morello was 4 lanes down. 😀
