Does stalling late in tournies actually do anything for ya?

The only time I find stalling to be effective is when my table gets short handed for a minute due to multiple busts. In that situation I might stall a minute to get some new players. I do this for two reasons. First I don't want to play the blinds a few hands early. More importantly I don't want the new player to sit down behind the blinds getting 1.5 orbits before the pay their blinds.
