[NSRCA-discussion] Not sure who handles this

I just took the AMA Judge Certification test online. There were 3 questions
that I got "wrong", and looking through the acceptable answers I would like
to point out a couple discrepancies. I passed the test but I thought this
could make the test a little more friendly to those who aren't thumbing
through the certification materials to look up the answers.

Question 30 - Regarding radii of loop segments within a maneuver, I put
"equal" and the acceptable answer was "identical".

Question 31 - Regarding major variations between radii and the downgrade. It
is a fill-in-the blank that finishes <blank> points or more. Now the
instructions stated each individual box will contain only one word, and
since I was typing my numbers instead of using the numeral, I typed "two".
Acceptable responses were "2-3", "2 to 3", and "two to three". First, to me
each of those responses contain multiple words. Second, to me the phrase
"two or more" means the same thing as "two to three or more"?

Question 32 - Regarding the continuation of the radius of a loop during the
snap in an avalanche, I put that the model should maintain the "track" of
the loop. Acceptable responses are "circularity" or "radius". Track seems to
mean the same thing to me.
