That could lead into one of those situations of the kind that make SciFi so popular (if I go back in time and kill my great grandfather, I will never be born, so how can I kill him?)
Let's assume that you have 18 points and I have 21. You ding me, but it doesn't count because you have less than 20. I then give you a positive hit, putting you over 20.
Your ding then becomes effective, I go under 20, so my ratings become invalid retroactively, meaning that you don't have 20 and your ding on me did not count, now I do have 20 and my rating does count...ad infinitum.
