See there's the problem; if you're going to allow a timer to do that to the rules, anarchy reigns.
Anyway, didn't the timer make a mistake by starting the clock
after a violation occured? They might not have been sure it was a violation, which is why they did their job by starting it. But we can tell them it was a violation, and correct the timing error.
