If a fast count infraction is called because the marker started the stall count from the incorrect number (e.g. when they are not within 3 metres of the thrower, or after moving more than 3 metres from the thrower) the marker should automatically reset the stall count at the correct number, even if that means reducing the count by more than 2 seconds.
If a marking infraction is called before the stall count reaches 2, the marker must reduce the stall count to 1 (it should not result in a "negative stall count").
