Don't fight it!

Most scorekeepers care and will do
the right thing.
The best you can do is go to your spot
and report as if they are giving you eye-contact.

War story from long ago:
Young female (20) married to coach,is the scorer.
When asked "How many team fouls?", her response
was "We're not in the bonus yet." This happened
every time I worked that school. After using several
different approaches without success, I gave up.
Some people are stubborn and think they have
the power.
It wouldn't be productive or professional to
cause a scene, and now many, many years later,
we interface in a business sense.
I'm glad I didn't force the issue.
Don't burn bridges.
Don't fight unecessary battles.
