This!  I have sat and waited up to 15 minutes while some clown shooting in A Class at an IPSC match argued over a Charlie vs an Alpha on one target.  Over the course of the match three or four guys caused the overlay to be called into action.  I quit IPSC for a few reasons, one of which was the constant nagging on scored targets.  

Nine years of working the WA State match and I doubt I have spent three minutes in total, re-assessing scored targets.  That said the shooters at that match are consistently among the best group of guys I have had the pleasure of working with.  If I have a doubt it goes to the shooter.  IMHO we don't need overlays in this sport.  

The only problem with one second per down 1 and three seconds for down three is it it a lot like Action Shooting International the other action shooting sport.Wink

Shame on the USPSA match official for not following their Rule 9.6.7 which states the RO may remove the paper target from the COF to avoid delay of the match.   If the rule had been followed there would have been no delay.  IDPA has a similar rule.
