Why do skipped solutions count as fails?

Revision en1, by knight-erraunt, 2016-03-30 23:11:44

I have been wondering why my solution to problem A from the contest 346 got only 444 points while most of people who submitted it at similar time got ~490 points, I had not submitted failing code. If I understand correctly it is because I double submitted the code and the first submission is counted as a fail? Is there any other explanation? If not why is it so, if I double submitted a correct solution I never got a fail, I reckon it not fair. (though I am happy with my score anyway thus will not cry probably)
