Ahhh. That must be the problem - I tend to use absolute scores a lot (as a way of tagging individual users), and you are correct, there is an absolute score in place for this particular user already. I'll try removing that and rescore. Hang on a sec. :) That did it. It was the previous absolute score that was causing the issue. In fact, as soon as I removed it from the scoring window, the new score showed up.
