Wetsuits at Meets?!

I didn't swim the 400 IM. She didn't beat me; I beat her in our couple common events. Since I didn't see it up close myself -- I'm usually oblivious to competitors right before I swim -- I would not report it. I don't think many people fancy being a squealer either. Wait -- you can't just leave us hanging. What are you thoughts on top ten? I just wonder how accurate Top 10 actually is. I've been on both sides now where my best times were thrown out (due to a simple technicality.) And on the flip side, this past season, I actually moved up a few spots when other swimmers' times were thrown out for lord knows what reason. As much as I'd like to think I was truly 3rd in the nation in some events, I don't feel that elation after seeing a couple of gals' performances/ times vanish. So, I'll be at x place under "Current Top Times" and then at z or c place in Top 10. It's always a surprise. Anyhoo, what is really fair? I just swim. :D I feel for the gals whose times went - poof!
