You can reduce the chances of error, but you can't always avoid it. Heck, we had one in a JuCo game last week.
Bob, one doesn't need to do a one-to-one matching to catch the mistake in this case. The kid started the game! So he has to be marked as one of the five starters in the book. If the R looks to see that five starters are marked, then he might catch this one. Of course, if some other kid was marked as a starter, then one is still out of luck.

Chessref, the kid for the visitors who wasn't in the book was a starter and on the floor, right? If he was still on the bench, then I'm sure that you know thaht there is no T unless he plays.
