Dispute Evidence / Rationale	Still going with the good ol' crap score removal. (I invite anyone else interested in helping clean things up to look at the first link below, find any of those scores that are on TG, and dispute them with a copy or paraphrasing of the text of this dispute.) This score was added to the database from an external site. https://goo.gl/wUb5X8 (link to internet archive mirror) Evidence is strong that this site did absolutely no validations of any of the scores, accepting all claims as valid. Just looking at the content of the page, with just a form to "submit" a score, shows this to be likely. Further, multiple scores added to the database from this external list have already been disputed and removed due to being impossible, (see this dispute: https://www.twingalaxies.com/showthr...13,343,567,930) which should itself be sufficient to show that nothing on that list should be considered trustworthy. Also, this particular score is attributed to a person that is not a TG user, and has submitted no scores to TG at any point. I believe this score does not meet any of the standards for inclusion on TG and should be removed.

Evidence indicates that this site did absolutely no validations of any of the scores, accepting all claims as valid.

Previous disputed scores imported from the above external site were accepted based on the dispute claim arguments presented in this specific case and other the identical cases in the Atari Jaguar score disputes that Angela Stefanski filed claim against.

Those scores had a claim filed, and were removed, consistent with the others.

However, based on the dispute claim thread conversation found here - on a forward going basis in regard to these specific scores, Twin Galaxies will no longer perform a score removal purely on the previously valid claim basis and will instead simply move the dispute claim to INACTIVE status, making exception for these specific scores that have been sourced from the above site, and allowing for the community to continue to explore them, despite the claim having met criteria for TG removal.



Please note that it is always a challenge to deal with scores that have been historically imported from other adjudicative sources - especially ones that have so clearly outlined a relaxed submission process that has resulted in some cases of bad data.


Thanks to everyone for their participation in this challenging matter.
