Often, 6 rounds in total is the conventional amount of rounds made that make a normal match considered "complete". However, in certain circumstances, especially if the players enjoy working off of each other, the number of rounds can often get extended to 8 or more. TheChutley and vvaluigi began a match together with the intent of playing 100 rounds in total beginning in 2008, and have gotten as far as Round 75 in the present day, with a five year window of inactivity between 2011 and 2016.

[[The 100 Round Tennis|TheChutley and vvaluigi began a match together]] with the intent of playing 100 rounds in total beginning in 2008, and have gotten as far as Round 75 in the present day, with a five year window of inactivity between 2011 and 2016.

In some cases, especially in tennis's early years, matches could be declared "complete" at an odd number, as well as one under the conventional amount of 6. This usually came about as a mutual agreement between the players involved that the match had reached a natural end, if not exactly a conventional one. Matches such as Crash2991 vs. strong414bad(2008) and AshcrementVII vs. UncleChuckTH(2012) were called complete at 5 rounds, and in another, much rarer instance, RabbitSnore vs. NS2(2009) was given "honorary completion" after only 3 rounds. Other matches like RabbitSnore vs. conradslater(2007) and Kurkop vs. LeSuperKoffee(2010) were declared complete at the unusual amount of 9 rounds. These circumstances usually only happen when the last even round of a match is either unable or unwilling to be made by the volleying side, but there is not a desire to consider the match "failed" for sentimental reasons, usually due to the players being close as friends or the quality of the match as it stands being considered too great for failure.

Additionally, matches can sometimes stall at an odd number with an even finishing round never being made and the match being considered neither completed nor failed due to a loss of communication. These include matches such as BMATF vs. Markie(2007, the second ever tennis match), NS2 vs. Markie(2012), dew vs. robochao1(2016) and SushieBoy vs. guysafari(2010), all matches that never received a Round 6.
