AP is a big problem for me, too, BMA. I have just learned to sort of "Make A Snapshot" of the situation, including the beginning of the quarter, like DanRef said. This works in most games, except freshman girls and under. But like, Brian said, in those games, it's only been six seconds since the last one, so no problem.

The most important things are A) be sure your partner and you communicate heavily on every jump call. and B) don't let the table change the arrow UNTIL THE BALL IS ACTUALLY LEGALLY ONTO THE FLOOR. Be sure you discuss this with the table before the game, and then watch them for the first couple or three switches, to be sure they are doing it correctly.

Worst AP situation for me so far: I look up at the table to see which direction, and a kid is tossing the arrow device up and down in the air!! Stopped the game and asked management to get me a new table person...
