I get a little passionate right now about the timing rules. I was in a state semi last year when we had a play where B intercepted, but didn't get it with clean hands. After the penalty gave A a new series my R says "We start on the snap." I tell him "No. We start on the ready." "You sure?" "Yep"
The reason I was so sure is that we had just spent a week on the boards discussing these types of plays.
The problem was that the two evaluators dinged me several points for being in error on the timing rules (They both kept quoting NCAA terms (apparent COP, etc. [one of them even wanted to say that a change of possession was action that also stopped the clock! I just had to ask "How do we manage to have runbacks if the COP stops the clock?"]
Of course I also lost a couple of points for being "acerbic" to the evaluators..... Just because I asked them to go back and read the FEDERATION rulebook!
