Fast-roll tournament ruling?

In Response To: Fast-roll tournament ruling? (Matt Ryder)

I'm not sure it necessarily follows that simply because B plays early, his turn hasn't even started. Certainly, we can it agree that it shouldn't have started. But I feel that the requirement that the dice stand is tacit acknowledgment that B's turn has de facto started.

Ok, it has started in the sense that B has made some actions that he cannot take back. But it is not really B's turn yet. B can't start moving his checkers, for example.

If you take the position that B made an illegal play (by doing nothing) then ended his turn by picking up his dice, then A should have the right to condone the play or require B's play to be corrected. But A doesn't know what B rolled, so how can he make that choice?
