Does anyone else play with a casual rule, where a wild shot that bounces off the ceiling, but still comes down over the net on to the opponent's side of the table, counts as good return? (What is the official rule?)
It happens rarely, but it's so funny when it does. Today I hit a good spinny shot, and my friend missed and the ball bounces off the edge of his bat. Unfortunately it went straight up, bounced off the roof, and came back down onto the table! I'd already relaxed, thinking I'd won the point, and had to lunge at the last minute, and ended up hitting it off the end of the table and losing the point!
