You make the call #2

Round 1 was fun, here goes round 2.

Calvin Krabet throws a drive that looks as if it is going to go OB. As the people on the card are making their way down the fairway, Calvin walks out several feet infront of the other players. When he reaches his drive Krabet picks it up, and does not mark it. He says "it was laying on the line" and throws the disc to the ground to "show" the other 2 how it landed.

You make the call.

State the rule(s) number and explain.

If the in-bounds status of a disc is uncertain, either a majority of the group or an official shall make the determination. If the thrower moves the disc before a determination has been made, the disc shall be considered out-of-bounds, and he or she shall proceed in accordance with 803.08 B. If a player other than the thrower moves the disc before a determination has been made, the disc shall be considered in-bounds, and play for the thrower and the mover of the disc shall proceed under the rules of interference, 803.06 B and C.

Good Job!

What about not marking the lie? Would that also be a penalty? I may have to send this one off to the PDGA.

I want the official rule. I think that it may be 2 strokes.

This is what I found..
After each throw, the thrown disc must be left where it came to rest until the lie is established by the placing of a marker. This can be done by placing a mini marker disc on the playing surface between the hole and the disc, directly in line with the hole, touching the thrown disc. A player may instead choose, without touching or repositioning the thrown disc, to use the thrown disc as the marker. The marker may not be moved until the throw is released. A marker inadvertently moved prior to the throw shall be returned to its correct location.

803.02G

A player shall receive a warning for the first violation of a marking rule if observed by two or more players of the group or an official. One penalty throw shall be assessed for each subsequent violation of any marking rule during the round if observed by two or more players of the group or an official.

So, he get called OB because he moved the disc before the inbounds status is determined (one stroke). However he just gets a warning if it is the first time he doesn't properly mark his lie. If it's not his first violation, then he get stroked.
