Regarding violations on the thrower people seem to regularly stop play when
this call is made when there is no need. As far as I know the stall
decreases by 2 then just carry on playing. Only if there is a second call
within the same stall does it count as a reset and check. Is this correct?

Yes, but if they do that, then don't yell 'Travel' - instead yell
'Violation' claiming they violated 401 "Spirit of the Game" which states
"It
is assumed that no ultimate player will intentionally violate the rules".
On violations, you don't reset the stall count, just re-start play with a
check:
(404.17 Stoppage of Play: A. General: Whenever an infringement of the
rules
or a time-out occurs, play is halted and the disc is put back into play
with
a check at the point of the last possession before play was stopped,
except
as otherwise provided by these rules. )
In all seriousness, this is actually another point that does lead to
confusion at times - Violations don't reset the stall count as far as I
can
see - they are not Fouls ("404.13 Fouls: A. Definition: Fouls are the
result
of physical contact between opposing players).
So when you have a 'straddle' or a 'disc width distance' violation called
agaisnt the marker (404.11 A clauses 1, 2, and 3) - you don't reset the
stall count (unless there was contact which could constitute a foul).
