Stick: You ask about "what if my opponent bring his own suspicious bafflebox"? Read the DBgF rules for baffleboxes to see the solution to that problem: The box must be approved by the TD.

And I guess you could say the same for clocks: If you are to play a distrustful opponent that you know have previous been involved in cheating, and he pulls out his clock - would you trust that clock to run precise at both ends? If not should we then stop using clocks altogether?

So you're telling me that your TDs know the difference between a rigged baffle box and a legit one? Or that they'll say 'no' on the basis of they don't trust the individual? (yet still allowed him to enter the tournament)

I knew someone would bring up the well...if clocks then baffle boxes. It holds no water and someone who doesn't have to catch a flight in 90 minutes can expound.
