Usually, the high score is determined at Nationals: the best run on one of the standards stages is used. I've heard rumors that an average of the top 5 is used, but that doesn't seem to be the case. It is complicated a bit...
That said, most of the time, a GM does set the score... At a match... So... We're back to a fairly reasonable comparison.
Dr. No mentioned something interesting about "losing your credentials". I dunno. It's just a game. I think it is nice to say, "I accomplished it". It is also nice not to have to hit a big match (or number of big matches) - Those things get expensive...
