In Response To: New Rules (Regina Hackney)

Regina, perhaps this audience isn't aware of the discrepancy between your position and those of Shawn Cain and Jack Marcus. (Please correct me if I misstate anything):

Regina has stated that, when she's a Side Judge on the BP, she will give a Red Light if she feels that the Head Judge didn't keep the bar paused long enough before issuing the, "Press" command.

Shawn and Jack state that, if the bar came to a stop, they will respect the Head Judge's decision to call, "Press", even if they personally would've had a longer pause.

We're not talking about a lifter beating the command, and we're not talking about bar motion. We're talking only about redlighting for length of pause and deferring (or not deferring) to the position of Head Judge.

Just remember - I didn't start this thread.
