Timer Sheet - Grace Period

3 replies · 153 views

In Meeting Agendas, the Timer Sheet doesn’t mention the “grace period” – which I think most clubs use. It does show a “Time’s Up” column that represents 30 seconds after the maximum time but doesn’t show anything for the 30 seconds “grace period” before the minimum time. Also, the Timer Script does not incorporate language for the “grace period” before and after the Minimum and Maximum Times. As far as I have been able to determine, this is not something an Admin can edit. Can the Timer Sheet be made editable by Admins?

Grace period is not mentioned in any manual or rule book that I know of.

I believe it is mentioned in contest rules. It is a practice that many clubs follow, based on my experience.

And the Timer Sheet does have the "Time's Up" column which shows what I call the "grace period" after the maximum time. We would just like to see the same for the 30-seconds allowed before the minimum time.
