KISSit's fairly easy to see a couple score sheets on tables, then look to see what game is left. Takes 30 seconds

For after-league play (whether preplays or just for fun), there's no specific rule, but the Golden Rule is always a good guide... check to see if any groups still need to play the game you're about to start. I'd be somewhat reluctant to add a rule that blocks all preplays just because one group is having an epic game 4, but we can take that under consideration per Dave's request.

Nah, no reason to do that. It's too draconian.
There does need to be a better way to know if any groups have a given machine left to play or not. Not-well-thought-out suggestion: Small stickers that can be attached to the lockdown bar with group numbers on them. When you're done, peel off your group number. If there is a group number still on the machine, it's not available for preplays. This also has a side benefit of knowing if there's a group ahead of you on a given machine. This falls apart of course if people forget to remove the stickers :)
