One station this weekend is going to get a NIL penalty for not working me. He wasn't in my log, but I chose not to argue about it. I lose one QSO, he loses 3.

Just work the dupes!

Provided that like you I always work dupes, the station refusing the (2nd) QSO with you will probably not get a NIL for your busted first QSO.

Let's say that you worked IK3QAR but wrongly logged IK3QAA: you will have a busted call penalty, but IK3QAR will have a good QSO. At least this is true for CQ WW/WPX contests, not sure about ARRLs.
