Director's action?

In Response To: Director's action? (Chuck Bower)

Since neither player brought this to the director, no action should be taken. The kibitzer is merely an observer, is not a tournament official, and should say nothing to the players.

It is the responsibility of the players to properly maintain their match score. The scoreboard is just an informal way of doing so. The appropriate and proper way to maintain a match score is to keep a written record, and to confirm the match score after every game with both players. If they are choosing not to use a written record of the score, and instead rely upon a non-official method, then there is no ruling to be made.

If anything, the director after the match could remind both players that they should be keeping a written record of the score, and announcing it at the end/beginning of each game.
