# FR and SR, explained
FR means first round. SR means second round. Every teer game, each draw day, holds two separate shooting sessions, and each session produces its own number. They are not two halves of one draw. They are two draws.
The rounds differ in the shooting itself. At Shillong, fifty archers shoot thirty arrows each in the first round; in the second, the same fifty shoot twenty each. Fewer arrows in the second round, but the count still runs into the hundreds or thousands, and the result is still the last two digits. The first round at Shillong lands around 3:45 PM IST, the second around 4:45 PM. Khanapara runs later in the afternoon.
Both results are always two digits: 00 to 99. Never 100. This confuses newcomers — if 1,100 arrows hit, isn't the result 100? No. The rule is the last two digits of the count, and the last two digits of 1,100 are 00. Three-digit counts collapse the same way: 1,247 becomes 47, 562 becomes 62. The result set is fixed at one hundred possibilities, which is also why every number's chance is one in a hundred.
The rounds are independent. The second round doesn't "owe" anything to the first. A 47 in the first round says nothing about the second — the archers shoot again, the count starts from zero, and the digits fall where they fall. Treating FR and SR as connected (adding them, mirroring them, "balancing" them) is folk habit, not arithmetic with any force behind it.
At the counter, the rounds are also separate business. First-round betting closes before the first shoot; second-round betting closes before the second. A slip marked FR is dead for the SR count, however close the numbers look.
One exception to note: Jowai and Ladrymbai. These are two separate games in the Jaintia Hills, and each declares its own FR and SR pair. Don't read them as one game's two rounds, and don't mix their numbers into Shillong's or Khanapara's columns. Separate counters, separate counts, separate results.
