[CQ-Contest] CQWW CW LCR "incorrect call"

[Mike Smith VE9AA]

To all serious contesters:

 

I have no complaints. Overall I am pretty happy with my performance but am
wondering about the growing list of "incorrect calls" that I have this year.
I am always looking to improve.

 

I am 'about' where I am every big contest. 1.4% error and 4.7% score
reduction.  I have seen it a little less, but this was a long test at nearly
3900 Q's

 

It's the list of 38 "incorrect calls" I have that I am curious about.  I
mostly ran and was unassisted, so I need to work on copying calls
correctly(that much is obvious) . Some calls had more than one typo/error in
them but as the runner I sent these busted calls back to the caller and
nobody corrected me?!

 

Is this because they are not affected(score-wise) if I butcher their call?
(am I understanding that correctly?)

 

Anyone else seeing this trend?

VE8AA is not a contester)
