I too thought most of the errors to be not my problem until I recorded the
entire contest and later checked all my UBN against the recording.
I was surprised to find how accurate the UBN is after all.
I recommend everybody to do the same. Not only is a lesson in humbleness but
you will learn how to avoid common stupid mistakes.
The UBN report cannot be 100% correct but it is  a lot  more accurate than
the most accurate operator you can find in the world.
