So, you can put the SEEN time back on the clock if the timer really screws up, but you can't change it if the timer is within a second.

Frank,

I may be misreading 5.10.1.b but the lag time is interpreted to be 1.0 second ALREADY. Official blows whistle and then glances at the clock (that takes 1.0 seconds by interpretation) so timer made an obvious mistake. IOW, the official probably blew his whistle at 1.6 and then glanced at the clock to catch .6.

See if it does not read that way to you.

thanks
