Very well put chess. Some of the more sr member i guess feel threatened by this, but I dont believe if will change unless, like some others have said, it it handled differently. Times have changed and the way this stuff like this is delt with has to change or it will continue and escalade. I still think the test link was ok based on what supposedly happened. [/B][/QUOTE]Stick to what was said instead of putting up a straw man. "Feel threatened" indeed. Quit being so childish. Same for the others who create legitimate reasons for publishing or wanting test answers as some kind of refutation of the point about cheating. Legitimate reasons are one thing. Wanting the answers for filling out the test is quite another.

The Case Book is one big umpire test with answers given. The ASA test comes mostly from the case book. If you truly want the answers only to learn, the case book covers not just this year's test, but last year's, and the years before that, and most likely next year's.

If 3m wanted his test graded, that offer was made and rejected.

Hence, the assumption he wanted to cheat. His protestations to the contrary, his words, actions, and attitudes on this site do not support his claims of innocence.

It is also bad form to use two different user names to appear create someone who agrees with you.

Yes, Cadillac is trying to keep up with the times, but why bring them in to it?
