HI Keith
I am partly repeating myself from an earlier suggestion in the thread, but isn't a simple online score card form that is uniformed going to sort all this mess out? The fields would be PNUM/Name/Grade/Board/Colour/Score. That then removes duplication, chasing, grading work and uneccessary admin work. Perhaps add a new rule to the rule book to back this up saying results to be given within 72 hours. If there is no resources for producing that facility online, then maybe we need to go back to the old fashioned score cards which can be snail mailed or scanned and emailed as our team captain does for our league matches.
Perhaps team captains and players could be more helpful in many cases, but I wouldn't fault them for not giving all the fields mentioned above, when there is no guidelines or instruction to do so in the rules/entry form. I would however be happy to join you in faulting those who dilly dally with passing results onto Andy or yourself, and need chasing up. Regardless of the lack of clear guidelines on giving results that is just hopeless.
