I heard an interesting story recently.
Team A concluded that Team B preferred a short rolling style game after a few ends.
Next time Team A got to throw the jack they chose to have a longer end across a rougher part of the terrain. Most people would suggest this is a reasonable strategy and within the sprit and rules of the game.
Team B called the umpire to confirm that the jack was not more than 10m it was measured at 9.8m
Meanwhile team B have redrawn the circle.
Team B now ask the umpire to measure the size of the circle and the circle is measured at 52cm and is declared invalid.
Team A point out that the circle has been interfered with and is not the circle that they originally used.
What action should the umpire take?
