In Response To: CLOCK-troversy 2 (Matt Cohn-Geier)

Agreed---that is plenty! The rules state that "Each player shall keep a running match score and compare it to his opponent's at the start of every game." As a TD I do not require that each player physically read the other's score sheet; the accepted practice is to simply announce the score and unless the speaker hears a negative response, play proceeds into the next game.

As a player, I use a scoreboard AND I record a running score. The only potential for problems is when the scoreboard is NOT updated appropriately and versus the written score of one or both players shows differently. OF COURSE, the written scores are the standard of evidence and would override the scoreboard.
