The reaction lands where the ball does

- praise was firing at RELEASE, half a second before impact (measured:
  32-frame flight, word on frame 0) — it now arms on the ball and pops
  on the first body it meets, or its first bounce
- DOUBLE KILL / MASSACRE / RETURNED rise off the thing that earned them,
  as world-anchored pop texts — the announcement band is for milestones
- the band got rows: a card can no longer print over the flash line
- GAME N flash deleted (the scoreboard bar already says it), CHANGEOVER
  folded into the countdown panel
