I am not familiar with this rule. Could you please explain it? It
sounds like it is not the same as the late-arriving-freight-train rule
(rolling doubles that matches the flash being cleared to create a
freight train, I don't remember if the late train scores less or not).

Ah, is the rule that you can not roll doubles to clear a flash? The
way I've been playing, the 10 [10] would count as clearing the flash,
you score 50 points for that set of throws but YMNWTBYM kicks in since
all five dice are scoring.
We are LONG overdue for a game here! I should start a round of
No-Stops since that is quick just to see who can have the most insane
streak (I've been known for my long runs of good luck in past years).
