To reset it to a different number requires the timer to program it in manually, than program back the original 35 (or 30, for women). That's a hassle if it happens more than once or twice a game.

Hmmm, never thought of that. That will be a pain because of the related delays. I wonder if there are scoreboards that are more computer-based, that might just need a firmware upgrade? Or are most of the manual variety?
