Notes on discrepancies

  • On the final scoreboard for the series, the total number of points held by David was two less than the actual points he was awarded during the season.
  • This must have been an administrative error in the preparation of the scoreboard graphic, since the total scores shown for him on the final scoreboards for each of the season's episodes tallied exactly with the points observed to have been awarded.
  • Ultimately, the discrepancy did not affect the contestants' overall standings for the season.
