ummmm.....you really did. You wondered if they would accept it late. That's another way of simply asking for them to go against their rules. That's begging.
Regardless of the word you use to describe it, that's RISKY.
Like I said, you're at zero now. No matter what you do, you have nowhere to go but up. You offered up one RISKY idea, which is not at all guaranteed to work.
Then someone else offers up another idea that's not guaranteed to work, one that you didn't think of--and you reject it because it's "RISKY"?

My remarks were not at all nasty. That you chose to receive them that way speaks volumes about you.
That you would reject the idea because "ooooo, it's risky" is, in this situation, both amazingly funny and pathetic at the same time.

People who feel a need to tell the world that they've plonked someone are a special kind of people.

Which was the ENTIRE POINT. Read what you wrote: "not responsible for LATE or LOST claims..." You asked about "gee, what about sending it in late, think it'll work?" and rejected as "too risky" the idea of claiming it was LOST.
Two equally bad plans, which by the above you admit, yet you hang onto one as somehow being not as bad and immediately reject the other one?
