The one second lag time is only used in determining whether to reset the clock or not. If the official had definite knowledge that the clock should have stopped at 0:33 and the clock is at :29, they reset it to :33. In the same instance, if the clock is actually at 0:32, no reset is allowed because you allow for the 1 second lag. That's how the lag is taken into account.

WRONG! The official had definite knowledge that the whistle went at 33.8. That is definite knowledge that the clock should have stopped by 32.8. This is the definition of allowable lag time. Lag time allowance does not go away just because the timer did not stop within allowable lag time.

As for flirting, if your players are anything like my 8th grade girls, anything you did would pale in comparison to how they act when any goodlooking guy that is college age otr below walks within a mile of them!
