Clock Terminology

In Response To: Clock Terminology (Golden)

The DBgF rules states 4 different situations in which clocks can be used. That's the same ones you mention here, in your first 3 points:

1) Clock Mandatory (required)
2) Clock Preferred (one player prefers)
3) Clock Optional (both agree)
4) TD decision (could be from start of match or during a match, for any reason the TD may state).

But this one:

>> No clocks => all matches must be played without clocks

...is not found within our rules. The lowest possible denominator is 3) above. No TD can state that players are not allowed to use clocks, if they both agree to do so.

The one exception to all of the above: One player has physical disabilities or the like, that prevents him/her from playing with a clock.

Question for BGO:
Do you think a TD can demand players not to use a clock, even though both players agree to?

Best regards, Henrik
