Hi this happened to me 2 times upto now, if you were
first time checking this is no problem, in the end your
result will be accepted and appear on your list as
double check. If the assignment is checked in as double
check already (see the cleared assignments report) then
you can remove the assignment from your worktodo.ini
file, as when the assignment is double checked already
an extra result will not be accepted.
Kind Regards, Martijn
