The point is moot, however, as he registered under an obviously false name, and he's been eliminated for that reason. To be clear, I think the person who did this was making a valuable point about a disagreement between the T&Cs and our posted information about getting "at least 33 points", which we'll fix next year. I also think anyone providing such an obviously false name was not expecting to win anything, so I don't feel bad about eliminating him. :-) Sorry for the mix-up -- we'll do better next time.
