I used to work for a executive who kept the wall clock in his office 5 minutes fast. The idea was similar to yours; to make sure he (and people in his office) wrapped up meetings in time for the next one. The problem was that everyone knew his clock was 5 minutes fast (after all, we all had watches). So everyone just mentally subtracted 5 minutes & used that time. The people in FRC are as smart or smarter than the people there.
Keep thinking, but I don't think that's the solution. And while you're thinking, just show up for your practice matches at next year's CMP 10 minutes early.
