Att: Don Guido, or anyone else too

I need a rule in editing points results after posting them. I found an error I made and it involves my own results being changed from 110 to 120.
Like to know too how everyone else feels about making this change.
I'm happy though just leaving it as is.

JolyB, kudos on your big score of 176 stampeding over the rest of us with a decisive win.

Digger, my own reaction is that our primary goal in scoring a contest is to get the results right. If there happens to be an error that is later discovered, I believe it should be corrected to the best of our ability. If my score were too high, I would expect it to be corrected to be accurate. The fact that it is your score that is affected should not make any difference in the way we try for accuracy. I think that you should make the change.

And thank you for all of your hard work.

Digger, I've made plenty of scoring misakes over the years and have corrected them after apologizing to those involved. And thanks for taking it off my hands. My hands and mind are being occupied more and more with real life going-ons lately.
