Changing skating results

The most devastating result change ever, I lifted it from Wiki to make sure the facts were right (2006 Japanese Nationals): Because of an error in the scoring system software, Nobunari Oda was originally declared the winner of the men's event, with Daisuke Takahashi placing second. Oda had done four combination jumps instead of the allowed three, but the software had counted the fourth combination jump. When the error was discovered and fixed, their placements switched, with Takahashi winning the event and being sent to the Olympics. Oda was sent to World Championships. Japan had only one entry to the Olympics and to the World Championships in the men's event.
