Approval of Final Score

I don't know anyone that goes over to the book after the horn...we certainly check at a timeout/break before the game ends and that should generally take care of it. We make eye contact with the scorer on the way out and if there is something different that they have, they must get your attention before you clear the gym.

No offense intended here, but I believe you have this completely backward. I cannot verify that the score is "what I BELIEVE it to be" without actually seeing the book. And I honestly don't care what the pretty lights on the wall say. Granted, 99% of the time, they are right... but that doesn't really matter.
