Extreme Example Of 'Zero-Tolerance'

[Mike Scott]

It appears that it was the result of an overzealous event referee (I guess that = chief arbiter = Andy) basically taking the law into their own hands (would never happen in chess!) and the overall event boss (= Alex)being unavailable (late long lunch?)to sort it out until too late.

Have contacted the governing body for a comment and will see how quickly they respond to queries/critism!
