If you want a well called game, make sure you have 2 officials are working the game and it is better if you have 3 officials. If you want to come up with a guideline that is perfectly fine with me and many others here I am sure. I am just not going to downgrade an official for doing something very difficult even for the most in shape person. If anything I would only be concerned about are they trying to hustle. Other than that, they need to survive.

Perhaps I misread BM's intentions, but my impression was that what he wanted to put together was some useful information and strategies that would assist the official who finds himself in the unfortunately position of having to work alone, not to put together some kind of standard one-person mechanics manual that officials would be held to and graded on.
