Tennis uses multiples of 15, but only up to 45, calls other points weird names, then closes a set, which has to be repeated at least 6 times for a separate scoring, with said scoring also needing to be repeated AT LEAST 3 more times, but can be dragged out ad infinitum.

Even table tennis has the decency of using a straight scoring system where 11 points wins a set and 2 sets wins the match.

    It’s even worse than that. There is no 45. It’s 15, 30, then a jump of 10 not 15 for the score of 40.

      Ugh, I forgot that. The weirder part is that it would make no difference if it was 45 instead of 40

        True, that’s a good point. Good match!
