Exactly what rule are you talking about, Dan?

There is no rule that I know of that will allow you to correct any timing error unless you know exactly how much time to put on or take off the clock. [/B][/QUOTE]

No kidding.

And if I'm allowed to put time on the clock I am, logically (how else does time elapse except by the clock properly starting?), allowed to declare the clock has started properly. Regardless of the timer's obvious error.

Now, what about the case where the timer properly starts & stops the clock with ZERO time coming off the timing device? You gonna let A1 re-enter?
