Hold down the "Ctrl" or "Alt" key while clicking the period
indicator to change it to any text.
</li>
<li>
Timeouts can exceed three by clicking them while holding the
"Shift" key.
</li>
</ul>
<h1>Customizing</h1>
<p>
If you use this, I want to add your logo and the logos of the
teams you play to the <a href="logos.html">included set of
logos</a>.
</p>
<p>
The scoreboard is written in HTML5, CSS, and JavaScript, so a web
designer should be able to season to taste. Send me what you come
up with, I want to see it!
</p>
<h1>If you have problems</h1>
<p>
If something goes wrong, please email me (link below) with as much
detail as you can remember, and I'll try to fix it for you and
everybody else. For example:
</p>
<blockquote>
<p>
I clicked the period timer during a timeout and the Team A logo
turned into a photo of a burrito.
</p>
</blockquote>
<h1>Enjoy!</h1>
