• The inspiration for this question came from: http://www.sqlservercentral.com/TotalScores

    The number of Points (won) - 599 - for me near the top of the Question of the Day Breakdown table does not match my Score - 603 - at the bottom of the Question of the Day table. I have no idea why they differ. It may have nothing to do with the answers in this question. But it did get me thinking about designing for data consistency so I thought I'd submit the question.

    I also learned something new from this question. For those who complain that the questions do not get reviewed by the editors, I can assure you that they indeed do get reviewed. This question had to be modified and resubmitted twice before getting published. I, for one, appreciate all the hard work that goes into making this site the valuable resource that it is to all of us.
