That was the point. If home coach is done with the book at 10:01 left, there would be no way for the visiting coach to get everything entered before the 10-minute "T" mark.

Mark D, you also said in #4 above "remind the visitor book that they are an official too" and that the visiting scorer has as much right to get the officials attention as the home team. You are going to have to prove that to me.

2-1-1: "The officials shall be a referee and an umpire . . . who shall be assisted by two timers and two scorers."

2-11: The scorers (note the plural form here) shall . . .

Quote:
I have an official timer and an official scorer, not a home scorer and a vistiing scorer. Whatever my official scorer says and is in their book is the only account of the game. If there is a question that the visiting scorer raises I will ask the official book, if they disagree the official scorebook stands.
I agree - if they disagree, you have to go with the official book. However, the visiting scorer is allowed to, and should, call things to the officials' attention.
