We are by rule permitted to take time off the clock when the timer makes an error. IOO we are authorized, by rule, to determine when the clock has started properly even in the case of a timer's error.

OK, exactly how much time are you gonna take off the clock in this case?
Might as well answer my next question too at the same time:
How did you know that was the exact time that needed to be taken off the clock?

Not sure where this is going but I take off exactly what I have definite knowledge of. (Is this a trick question?)
So I take off the time and let A1 re-enter. What's the problem again? [/B]

If the timer
never started the clock, then what "definite knowledge" do you have to take off the time? That's what I can't understand. [/B][/QUOTE]
Really...? OK, try this simple example of when anyone, even you, has definite knowledge:
I'm T on the throw-in at the endline. Before bouncing the ball to A1 I glance at the clock, it says 4:14. A1 completes the throw in, A2 catches it and I start my 10 second count. As we come up the court I glance up & notice the clock is still at 4:14 but my count is at 4. TWEEET. Please take 4 seconds off the clock please.
(Trick question??)
