:G'day {{u|Donner60}}, my view has always been that the assessment has to be done during the month in question, as that is what attracts the points. So, if it was assessed in September, it goes against the September total, not August. Cheers, [[User:Peacemaker67|Peacemaker67]] ([[User_talk:Peacemaker67|click to talk to me]]) 09:22, 1 September 2024 (UTC)
::That confirms my roundabout opinion. Thanks. [[User:Donner60|Donner60]] ([[User talk:Donner60|talk]]) 22:34, 1 September 2024 (UTC)
