sort of................... im just wondering if i came in one position a head of gerry how does he get 95 and i only got 94 unless im reading it wrong?

You are reading it right.

I have noticed this several times so far this season. Autoscore has a few problems (which was what prompted me to replace it, but that's another story), and one of the problems it has is it sometimes screws up the points results like what happened to you.

Remind me on Saturday to fix it in the racing computer; these mistakes have to be fixed manually.

And, as a note to everybody, check the standings and see if you spot problems; it's a royal pain for one person to cross-check the results. If everyone just checks if they have more points than the person they beat and fewer than the person who beat them, then it's much easier to find these problems.

thats it i am going to bring a ball to the track tomorrow so dog ball has something to play with or a choke chain.dog ball [BAD] [BAD DOG].

It's fixed; you'll see the change next time I post the standings.

Everyone else make sure you double check to see if you're getting what you think you should. The points you earn every night are quite easy to figure out, so if you're confused, it may very well be due to a stupid Autoscore bug. Like I said, this has been caught several times so far this season, and I wouldn't be surprised if it's happened even more times and hasn't been caught.
