Ah that makes a lot more sense now. I just found it interesting how some rankings went up by a lot while others dropped by a lot.

This is a general question but what caused the final scores to change quite a bit compared to the preliminary scores? I saw some rankings for events go up significantly while others went down.
There was a glitch that caused short answer questions to not be scored. I would assume that ranks changed due to the addition of the scores from these short answer questions.
pardon my question
how can we know for sure?
