Although there is no rule about placing exposures in the hand's order on the card, it is courteous to do so and put Jokers in the proper place.

Stopping the Charleston after the first Charleston moves is permitted and does not require another players' permission to do so nor does that person need to give a reason as to why they make their decision.
