As the ball is being dribbled up the court, the T sounds his/her whistle and loudly calls out "The clock did not start, please take 2 seconds off the clock" and then, once the clock is adjusted, administers another throwin and away we go.

It appears APG and I would be fine with that (as I imagine most of us would). One poster would have us believe that the only way for this to be handled would be for the T and the L to come together and the T tell the R that the clock did not start properly and the the R go to the table and tell them to take 2 seconds off the clock and then everyone go back to their positions and then we can finally get the game going again.

As I said before, the block feature on Arbiter is a wonderful thing. I have absolutely no time nor desire to work with any partner who has that large of a stick up their rectum.
