As this is not a CFJ, the following is not a gratuitous argument: We have recently developed a trend of treating only the final revision as a “duty-fulfilling report” when a series of revisions are CoE’d. This shows up in, for example, the recently-repealed Payday, where I had paid people only once even for reports which received multiple revisions and nobody complained. That’s probably worth codifying or passing through judgement, but I’m out of AP and I need to keep my Shinies to pay the auction winner with. -o
