I would be much happier if the impact of being audited was having my points frozen, but still having access to my reservations.
The above to me is the critical part. As lex says, points etc can be sorted later but not having access to reservations or ability to make reservations - that's the BIG issue.

I respect the work that high school program volunteers such as you do. I also respect your grace in responding to the people in this forum who've challenged your version of events and your motivation. I presume they were skeptical only because FT gets so many posts from people asking for help against hotel/airline mistreatment while omitting significant details about their own mistakes or misdeeds that caused the problems in the first place.
This.

Your team must be exceptional to travel all over the country debating. I didn't do that til college. You rock, lady, and your team is fortunate to have you at its head! I hope your competitions are going well and that your team is learning and growing as they compete. They are developing great skills of organization, analysis, and exposition that they will be able to apply in almost all careers.
And this.
Cheers.
