January Swim Captains -Conference

Captains, 

We have a scoring issue, the outcome of which will determine if a team wins or loses. I am seeking your input on the issue. I'm not seeking votes, but opinions. As Renee for this challenge, the final decision rests with me.

Here are the facts of the situation:
- A challenge participants goal as reported to me and stated in the forum was measured in Meters
- The challenge participant logged their swim distances in Meters.
- Monthly swim totals in the training logs display in Yards regardless of the unit logged.
- The logs clearly state the total is in Yards
- The challenge participant swam enough in yards to meet their goal, however in meters, they missed their goal.

It appears that the challenge participant was looking at the number on the left hand side of the training log and assuming that the number displayed was in meters. The question at hand: is the final score to be determined by the intentions and beliefs of the challenge participant or the actual behavior of the challenge participant?

This thread will remain open for your thoughts until 22:00 UTC (5pm Eastern). Should you prefer to send them to me personally that is acceptable. 

This is not an open debate. It is for team captains only. If you are not a team captain and simply have to let your opinion be known, go clean your bike. Do not post to this thread. I'll delete it and change your rank to 'minnow' for the month of February.

The technical issue of the units reported in the monthly totals in the training logs will be reported to the programmer.
