Touchpads with manual watches as backups. These are the instructions on the record form:
"Attach the printout showing event number, heat number, splits, backup from the electronic timing system and/or time card with the signatures of all three timers."
I interpreted the "and" as saying that I needed to submit both the backup from the electronic timing system, AND the time card with the signatures of all three timers.
Perhaps Chris can clarify. I recall frantically running around at the end of one meet, trying to find the timers for a certain lane after we realized that a record had been set.
I remember in our meets, the head timer often starts running around frantically looking for a third timer, when we have someone who *might* set a world record.
Mark and the meet admin and officials tend to be in charge of that part at our meets, rather then me, so I don't know if it's a requirement, or if he wants to be safe rather then sorry. I do remember being dragged off from whatever I am doing at the time, to be the third timer myself.
