Now wait a minute, that "threat" is only 20%. The only reason to 
worry about that 20% is if you think it may make the difference 
between whether you win or not. If you are new to a field, winning 
an A&S with your entry is probably a remote possibility anyway (not 
unlike the odds of winning your first tournament, eh?).

So take 10 minutes to write down how you did what you did. I have 
done this on some of my work. No research, no sources, just "how I 
did it". You won't get full points, but so what?

There is no reason to stress and obsess about a measly 20%. As 
with fighting, A&S competition is about more than winning.
