Over the week end, (for the first time in 30 years of competitive swimming) I was disqualified. It bothered me a little bit for about thirty minutes but after a few plates of food at the all-you-can-eat brunch across the street, I was fine. I did have a question though. Do the officials usually tell you that they are disqualifing you? The official came over to my lane and said something to me (about my *** pull-out on the 200 IM) after the heat but never actually said that I was disqualified. I was a little confused so after I got out of the pool I walked over and asked, "Did you disqualify my?" The answer was yes. Never having experienced this before, I was wondering do the officials usually actually say "I am disqualifying you" or "You are disqualified" or is the suggestive comment supposed to serve this purpose.

Not only this, how much time do you want to spend at a meet. When each heat is over I don't want a couple minutes of down time while the officials review the tape.
