On another thread the question was raised how many people have had swims that did not get reported to Top Ten for what ever reason.Please post here if you have had that experience(venting is allowed.)
I have been swimming Masters since 1974 and my USMS experiences have been overwhelmingly positive and I want to thank all the officials and organizers.None the less accidents happen and I lost top ten swims(one a zone record) at 2 different meets when pool measurements showed the pool was short(once after a remodeling,which lead to the USMS measurement rule,and once when the bulk head slipped.In both cases the pool was 1 cm short.)I had another meet where the results were not reported,but thanks to diligent work from our Top Ten chair(thank you Mary Sweat)the results were recovered.
So who else has lost results.

I'm actually at a masters meet as I type this so I'll post the exact meets I had problems with - but when I have some time! Thanks Allen for starting this thread. As for this meet, I don't care at all if my swims are considered for Top10 (also b/c I'm doing 10 events in 2 days - so how fast could I go anyway)! I'm thrilled to be able to wear my cheat suits a few more time. Yeah!
