Congrats!

I had a similar issue in Bruxelles months ago. After reading my lab
for half an hour already, I remembered that Eric, the proctor,
insisted that we should check the rack first. So, I decided to do
that before continuing with the diagrams. I looked at the first
switch and I just had the feeling that my rack had been used for
training. So, I stopped and asked the proctor. Eventually, I have
got a time extension, but I did not need it. I was doing my diagrams
anyway and it didn't bothered me that Eric had to reset all the lab.

But don't rely on that time extension!
