I have been claiming the total opposite. I have been saying that 5-10 has nothing to do with this situation because it wasn't a [B]TIMER'S (who is a person) mistake, it was a
TIMING[\B] (a procedural) mistake. You're the one who keeps claiming it falls under 5-10 by continually citing a case book play that references that rule. I've said from the start that it falls under 2-5-5 where the referee can correct an obvious timing error.
[/QUOTE]You are partially right, Maverick. A referee can correct a timing error under rule 2.5.5. What you don't seem to understand though is that the referee can now
only correct that timing error by using rule 5-10.If you can find anything in the rules that say an official
can correct timing errors when they don't know
exactly how much time to take on or off the clock, please cite those rules. Feel free to get MTD Sr. to help you too.
