Notes:
A = Absence credit for a day not competing.
 V = Volunteer credit for a day of volunteering at the event instead of competing.
 * = Rounding error--typically less than 0.01 point. Original calculations are not restricted
     to two decimal places.
** = Tie breaker.  Where ties exist, we first check to see how the tied skiers compared to
     one another in the same race.  If the tied skiers did not race against one another (or
     remain tied if they did race against each other), we then give a slight advantage of
     0.01 point to the skier with the later high score (it pays to ski the last event!!!).
DNF = Did not finish (one or more controls missed)
DNS = Did not start
DSQ = Disqualified
MSP = Mispunched (one or more incorrect controls)
OVT = Overtime
