I was just suggesting language to describe the rule, not suggesting that this is the 'way to go'. I think mandatory clocks makes much more sense.

As a practical matter, 'clocks allowed' had almost no effect at my tournament. I never had more than two clocks checked out at any one time during my event.

You can get these Excalibur Game Time II clocks on Ebay for about $30.00.
