What are my options for the "definite knowledge?" If I ask the clock operator and he says the last time he saw was 2:35 can I put the clock back to that? Can I ask the official scorekeeper what the last time he/she saw?

In my game no one had any idea so I put it back to 2:43. Correct move?
Since it was 2:43, and you saw it start, you must have seen at least 2:42.

And, you had the count in the BC that you could take off as well.
