I wouldn´t go so far to raise bad thoughts against someone not posting 
to an unofficial body like 3830 - as interesting it is.
A claimed scores list at the sponsor´s site after deadline, open logs 
and the percentage of subtracted points in the final scores list can 
help for enough disinfection - and this by the really relevant body of 
each contest - its sponsor.
