(My post starts here - I can't get the indent to clear for some reason - drinkeii)

But it isn't written in any rule book - and if an assignor is basing their decisions on rules that don't exist, it is no different from officials calling the game based on their own rules, rather than the rules that exist for the game. How can you have a game when people make their own rules?

You must have missed rules 1 and 2:

Rule 1: Your Assignor is always right

Rule 2: See Rule 1.

If you want to have a salmon day, then call the game by the book, including 3 seconds in this sitch. And, when you cannot move up, don't cry to us. If your assignor wants this called, then god bless, he/she must be the only one in the country that does.

Basically some very wise, experienced officials on this board are trying to help you be a better official. If you choose to not take that advice fine, but don't discount it. Quite frankly, if you were my partner and you called this, I would find a new partner.
