I don't know the specific answer to that question. I'm guessing that the R's signature "officially approves the final score". Instead of the visual/verbal approval that the R gives the official scorer before leaving the visual confines of the playing floor (which hardly anybody does), the signature provides demonstratable verification.
Of course, this "signature business" is only defined by the Illinois HS Assoc. for the state tournament - not for regular season/holiday tournament play.
