I 100% believe your explanation here and it's not your fault SBR didn't update the standings in a timely fashion; your thought process makes perfect sense (as explained) and when there are tourneys that go technically screwy w/makeups involved... things can get confusing -- especially when someone doesn't check in everyday, understandable.
However, when someone knows damn well they weren't given a password to a tourney, but then proceeds to willfully 'crack' the password to enter a tourney they know damn well they don't belong in, with the express purpose to gain an unfair advantage over other competitors in a contest coming to a close... well, that's distinctly different from your situation (and easy to discern).
