Worked a tourney last week that was late starting 3 days in a row because of late teams. One partner was grumbling and threatening to start the game with a technical foul. I said that this was not the thing to do and did my best to downplay the idea. But afterward I thought more about the specifics of the situation. I still don't believe that this is the intent and purpose of this rule, but had he chosen to use it, I find it hard to dispute.

10-1-1: A team shall not fail to supply the scorer.................at least 10 minutes before the scheduled starting time.
