that sounds right according to the ARRL  general Contest  rules

7.1.If the claimed score of a participant is reduced by 2% or more, the 
entry may be disqualified. Score reduction does not include correction 
of arithmetic errors.

7.2.Score reduction may be made for taking credit for unconfirmed QSOs 
or multipliers, duplicate contacts or other scoring discrepancies.

7.2.1. Duplicate QSOs in electronic log file are considered zero point 
QSOs and are not penalized.

7.3.If a paper entry with more than two-percent duplicate contacts left 
in the log is detected, it will be automatically disqualified.

7.8 .In a paper log, for each duplicate contact that is claimed for 
credit, each miscopied call sign or each busted exchange that is removed 
from the log by HQ, three additional contacts will be deleted as a 
penalty. In electronic logs, for each duplicate contact that is claimed 
for credit, each miscopied call sign or each busted exchange that is 
removed from the log by HQ, one additional contact will be deleted as a 
penalty. The penalty will not be considered part of the 2% 
disqualification criteria.
