Not that bizarre.  Maybe I wasn't clear.

I'd answer questions 1, 2, 4, 5, 6, and 7, each on one side of paper. (It's 
a math class, after all.)   I'd get 10% off on #6, and 5% off on #2, and 
wind up with a grade of 85%, because the prof didn't take off the 20% for 
#3. He just counted up the points off that were written on the paper, and 
didn't count the points correct.

Happened at least twice that I remember. :-)
