I'm 51 and was the targeted age demographic for that show and I never watched one episode

No you weren't, youre too old. Also, sorry to hear your are gay. Kelly Kapowski sent me thru puberty.

My man I can't even follow you. Get off reddit for a minute and use your brain.

Yes it will. Tbh I'm questioning your education.

Do me a favor. Go put 10 seconds on your microwave and tell me if it instantly turns to 9 or it takes a second. Works exactly the same way as a game clock.

Looked like there was a camera man knelt down that he tripped over. Certain this meme will not be used later in the season though

Think about this

Where does the first second come from?

---

Again, in your scenario of it going from 15:00 to 14:59 instantly, that only counts out 899 seconds. There are 900 seconds in 15:00. Youre missing a second.

Yes? When have you ever seen a fraction of a second displayed? Similarly, when they start the clock, you think it waits a second to turn every time?

---

That's the point, its not displayed but that doesn't mean it doesnt exist. And yes it does wait a second to turn. How else would it keep accurate time?

Think about this logically. A quarter is 15:00, if the clock immediately goes from 15:00 to 14:59 then in actuality the quarter is only 14:59. Where did the last second go?

Problem was though it should have been a full 9 seconds, it wasnt. It clearly went from 9 to 8 almost instantly.

0.09 seconds on a game clock can be anywhere from 9.00 to 9.99 seconds

---

I'll reply to you too, you real sure about that? How much time is left when the clock shows 15:00?

When there are 0:09 seconds showing on the game clock it is 8.01-9 seconds, not 9-9.99.

---

To be clear. 9 seconds would be displayed for anything between 9.0 and 9.9 seconds

---

You sure about that? How much time is left when the clock shows 15:00? By your logic it's 15:00.9 just so you are aware.
