Playing Out Of Order

During this year's Japan National Championships, a most unusual event occurred during the ninth end of the 1-2 match between Chubu Electric (Team Nakajima) and Loco Solare (Team Fujisawa): the sixth stone for Chubu Electric was thrown by the skip.

With the score tied 5-5 and Chubu Electric with the hammer, they completely forgot how many stones they had left, and Nakajima threw the sixth stone. Loco Solare pointed this out after the shot played out and everyone had a good laugh about, but nobody seemed to know what to do about it.

Eventually, the rule was looked up: if a player is accidentally skipped (no pun intended), then the shot would be valid, but the last rock would be played by the person that was passed over. In this case, the final rock was played by third Chiaki Matsumura (last year Matsumura and Nakajima swapped positions, possibly another source of the gaffe), who promptly threw drew a perfect draw for three, essentially sealing the match.

For other violations, such as the fifth rock rule and failing to get the stone across the hogline, the throw becomes invalid. But for some reason, this violation incurs no penalty at all. Does this mean the order of play is completely arbitrary? If you have a third that's particularly skilled at a certain kind of shot, would that open up a strategy of having the skip deliberately playing the 6-7 shots to allow the third to close out the end in specific circumstances?

Had almost the exact thing happen in the provincial tankard this year Skip threw rock 6 by mistake and mate had to throw the last rock

If you were a conspiracy theorist, one might think a team could do this on purpose depending the type of shot required That is a triple runback vs draw the pin. I think if they throw out of turn, the rocks should be replaced to the original place before the shot as per the non offending team, and essentially lose your turn Then resume order of throwing, mate throw 7 and skip throw 8th

For some further weirdness, today Fujisawa snapped her broom while trying to get the opponent's stone out of the house (it stuck around, and actually played a part in the rest of the end) I've never seen a woman do that before.
