[blml] Double and appeal

[Guthrie]

Yes, it would appear that the correct adjustment should be to a 
weighted score, 67% of 3S = and 33% of 3S -1 (I think we always reject 
3S - 2, as the declarer can make 8 tricks on normal play).

That's the beauty of weighted scores :) If the match is close and the 
Director has a bet on one side or the other, he can get whatever 
result he needs by giving appropriate weights to a spectrum of scores 
ranging from 3SXX= through 2S= to 3SX-1 :)

Even better, the result is unlikely to be appealed :) The WBF 
recommend that a committee's criterion for adjusting the score should 
be "beyond reasonable doubt" (rather than the "balance of probability" 
used for most decisions).
