Don't forget the WCCC rules:

An operator error made when starting a game or in the middle of a game can be
corrected only with the approval of the Tournament Director. If an operator
enters an incorrect move, the Tournament Director must be notified immediately.
Both clocks will be stopped. The game must then be backed up to where the error
occurred. Clocks will be corrected to their settings when the error occurred,
using whatever information is available. Both sides may then adjust program
parameters with the approval of the Tournament Director. The Tournament Director
may not allow certain parameters to be changed, e.g., contempt factors.
