Technically it's the scorer that is supposed to record that information not the timer. Although the timer records the information on the scoreboard, it's not the timer's responsibility.

What would happen if I decided to be a scorer for a game?

Speaking for officials everywhere, we really don't give a sh!t.

I am trained in all table positions, for one. Even though it's been about 10 years since I've actually done scorer duties.

Did you ask everyone what their thoughts are? If not, then technically you cannot speak for everyone.

In this case, he can.

Actually he does not have to speak for everyone. I have never in all my years gave a darn who was working the table until they did something where they needed to be removed. Only once did I have to remove someone and he was a problem for an extended person to that program.

Don't take it too hard, cheasgle, but there it is right there.

We all have our job to do at a game. That inludes the popcorn lady. And part of our job is to make sure the chseagles of the world do their job. But if they don't, we just stop the game, find the AD, and say "Hey there, Mr. AD, I got me a faulty chseagle here. And this particular chseagle is beyond repair. Can y'all find me a new one?" And the AD says "No, problem. You there...popcorn lady...I need you to time the game. I know it's a step down in prestige but I got me a broken chseagle needs replacing and all my spare chseagles are out being de-wormed. I'll get Mort, the ticket-taker, to take over for you. He's just sitting around on his hiney doing nuthin' anyway." And the game goes on.

He didn't say everyone, he said everywhere. I'm pretty sure that everywhere there are officials, there's at least one who doesn't give a sh1t.
