Reference, please.

Because if I'm counting (even unofficially), I'm using that count.

Play: A inbounds into the FC with 20 seconds remaining. A1 holds the ball near the division line for the last shot, with no defensive pressure. Official keeps a mental count. After 6 seconds, someone shouts, "the clock didn't start." Official notices the clock is still at 20 and blows the whistle.

You wouldn't set it to 14?
