Calling All Table Officials

Since a good number of them frequent this discussion board . . .
QUIT PUTTING THE NEW TEAM FOUL ON THE BOARD BEFORE WE REPORT THE FOUL!!! Yeah, I AM shouting!
For about the fifth time this year we almost had a correctable error situation because, after whistling the foul and noting the sixth team foul tally on the board before reporting the foul to the table, we proceed to begin a one-and-one administration. Horn sounds to stop us and inform us that that was only the sixth team foul.
Table officials out there, spread it around. Please wait until after we report the foul to change or announce the new team foul tally. If it's five or nine team fouls, it's five or nine team fouls until we notify you that the next team foul has occurred.
Oh, and tell your announcer buddies to follow the same protocol. They're usually right there by you.
The best correctable error is one that is avoided.
There. I feel better.
