Silently failing to log him isn't the answer. He won't remember when
the scores come out, and probably won't know why his log was dinged,
if he even bothers to read the UBN report. It's like whacking the dog
a month after he peed on the floor - the dog has no idea what he did
wrong.
You have to tell him ON THE AIR, and IN THAT MOMENT that you're not
logging him. Or continue to ignore him and pray to the heavens that
he gives up and goes away. Or send him an E-mail after the contest
explaining why what he did was wrong, and that you didn't log him for
this reason. Maybe he'll remember the next time the situation arises.
