Using two hands isn't only about confusion about what the original position was or is, it's about stealing time whether it be your own time or your opponent's. You can move faster if you're using both hands to move checkers on the board or one hand to move the checker(s) you want while the other hand hits the clock. In doing this, you also potentially have your own arm/hand over the board blocking access to the dice while your opponent's clock starts because you were using two hands. There's just no excuse for it in my opinion.

I wasn't there. The match was meant to be fun for everyone involved including the spectators so I totally get if he was putting the checker on the bar away from her as a jab and vice versa. But when it's nearing the end of the match and one or both teams are concerned about their time I think the games should cease and go back to standard bg.
