I was discussing seed times with a friend and we had different ideas about what a seed time was. I thought a seed time was supposed to be a result from a prior race while he thought one could enter whatever one wanted and it was legitimate to adjust the seed time, for example to add a couple seconds so that he would be sure to beat it. On further thought there is the question of what previous time one should enter (if "should" enters into it), I have been entering my best time. Is there a general policy or ethic or does anything go?

I think putting a slow time is commonly referred to as sandbagging and not viewed very positively.
Agreed. But doesn't change the fact that some people swim better when they're in the lead.
