This thread is in response to Jim Thorton's thread about his AA time being disallowed.I think that if a swimmer swims in a USMS sanctioned meet and that the time gets to the "official" Top Ten list that it should count.Otherwise one could go back and check the length of ,say the Amarillo pool from the first Masters Nationals and if it was 1 cm short disallow the swims.There must be a statute of limitations and I think it should be when the official TT times are posted.

I would say that 80% of the respondents believe that Jim acted in good faith and is being unfairly penalized by the actions or omissions of others within the organization. The meet was sanctioned by USMS. He received assurances from the meet organizers that his times would count for top ten consideration. And his name appeared in the finalized rankings.
