Agree. Anybody can screw up a rule, or an interpretation, even me, even the best officials, even the best "rules" officials, even JRutledge.
But it isn't just the wrong reasons that bother me, it's the
large number of trained officials who answered correctly, but with the wrong reasons.
And unless one, as an IAABO member, scrolls through each individual response on the website, one won't begin to understand the depth of this problem because these "correct" answers will show up in the final results as "correct".
I hope that the IAABO Co-Coordinators of Interpreters address this "dribble" issue in their play commentary.
