I don't know, ultimately I suppose that's up to Colin

I tried to follow his format (and his points per round), so I don’t see why not.

That said, if he doesn’t want to count it then it doesn’t count.

I whole-heartedly endorse this GOG!

Also, I asked nevermoor if he could post one for the Baltimore series, so keep an eye out for that…
