Clocking

with increased attendance there are, consequently, more rounds and matches to play; hence, in a weekend tourney, even more need to keep the tourney moving; hence clocks
plus with a clock and one set of dice there are no fast rolls, no arguments over the previous roll, etc.
and I can assure you it is no fun to sit around for 3-4 hours waiting for your next match because some bozo is overly deliberate; some of the very guys who cause all the delays with slow play have demonstrated they can play perfectly capably on a clock
further, I suspect Ray/Joe would have had the same problem without a clock; an erroneous recorded score caused the problem, not the clock; plus there were underlying bad feelings from the previous event
