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?

I think in such a case that the clock operator would be a viable option....but really 2:35 vs. 2:43 is not that big of a deal. 15 seconds vs. 7 seconds is.
