So I'm the "senior" official in the game, as our board sometimes refers. (This just means that the other official has less experience.)

The home team got off to an early lead, and was up about 15 points for most of the game. The crowd was kinda into it, and kinda not. I've done a few of these "special games" in the past, and when the crowd is really into it, the atmosphere is AMAZING!

So in the third, I decide that I'm going to influence slightly the game.

Frankly, JugRef, I'm not sure what you mean by "deciding that I'm going to influence slightly the game." If you mean that you wanted to help decide who should win or lose, I think it was just plain wrong. But if you mean that you were trying to determine how tightly to call the game, or what to call and what to let go, why did you wait so long to decide? I need more explanation to "decide" my call.
