I guess I should clarify my reason for asking: Some fellow officials suggested making your own clip instead of purchasing a clip with a yard line indicator on it (like the disc or slider types). There reasoning was that the linesman doesn't have time to be twisting the dial every time the chains move. But if the clip doesn't have a mechanism for recording which yard line it was on, then someone has to keep up with that.

Ah - I see now. I use a real clip (slider), so didn't get your intent. In fact, if you use the proper equipment, the issue you're asking about isn't an issue.
