We chose to ignore MISC files and not do anything with them.
So in our initial runs, our trackout files would not have
any output for MISC files only the NEWS files. But we found
the eval software blowing up saying some files were missing
from the trackout files. So, now we still dont track
MISC files but add a line to the out file anyway with a
NO decision and 0 score.
