As one of those 25 you worked, I can say the new multiplier credit
you gave me during the last hour of the contest was also "very enjoyable" here.

You have found your own error - you didn't use some external source
to provide information about the QSOs that you didn't already have.
You should edit your submission to make it correct and re-submit it.
patleeper... is the address I sent mine to this morning, but have not
received any kind of acknowledgement yet.
Thanks again for the QSO.
