So once we toss and they don't jump, we readminister and direct them both to jump...if they still won't jump, it seems like that falls under 10-3-5, no?
Don't think so. The ball becomes live and put in play when the official tosses the ball. So, they've not prevented that.

However, I could go with the "similar acts" element of that article.

I'm probably just going to toss it so that it touches one of them.
