The match was intended to go to Round 10, but conradslater declared the match completed when his final turn came around, considering RabbitSnore's Round 9, "Syphozoa Synthesis"(2007), to be an appropriate finale to the match.<ref>https://archive.yellowtealpurple.net/youchew/forum/19-tennis-completed/86371-poop-tennis-rabbitsnore-vs-conrad-slater-round-9/2.html#post-3528278</ref> The match is tremendously experimental and challenging even for its era, with the final two rounds taking up about 10 minutes of the 25 minute runtime, making for easily the longest match to be played in the first months of tennis as a whole.
