Then, hopefully there are not a lot of unscrupulous ones doing the job, but I think there are plenty who would simply not tell anybody. (hee, hee, I got away with one for the team) or (they're just kids and that's a stupid rule, anyway) For one to hold the T and use it, I don't know. Most wouldn't be that devious, and besides that, they wouldn't think of it.

Honestly, the point isn't which would happen more often, it's which would be least damaging to the game if it did happen.

Plus if it was changed it would still allow the "heh-heh we got away with one" error to occur.

Yep, nothing says they have to tell you at all if the scorer is really that bad.

Just have a discussion with scorer/timekeeper before each game, after the meeting with the Head Coach and Captain(s) and instruct them to sound the horn ASAP when there is a discrepency.
