Failing to Report

[golfdesigner]

How 'bout a little review on this one--

Start of 4th quarter-- Black Ball coming in--
Table sounds first horn, then second horn
All 10 players on floor and ready to go--
Ready to blow whistle for RPP--
R opposite table ready to go--
R Checks w/ T -- get thumbs up signal
R Checks w/ Table -- Scorer waves R over to table for discussion
Table says 32 Black did not report in -- [appears 32 Black was not in game at end of 3rd period]

What do ya got, what might be the "mechanic"; and how 'bout some discussion on the timing of the "failing to report"

1. What is the reporting "requirement"?
2. When should players report?
3. When should table notify?
4. When is T called if called at all?
5. What kind of "preventive officiating" is recommended or suggested?

After some discussion I'll tell what they did.
