It's kind of like you failed an exam in university, and you went to the professor and told him it made you sad.
So he said "OK," and took the paper and crossed out the F and wrote a big A++ with a smiley face.
Heh, that sort-of happened to me. Turned in a programming project. Got to school the next week and the grade came back as a 0/100. So after a bit of a talk with the teacher she oks me to work with the TA to see what happened.
Turns out I coded it in just the perfect way to expose an error in her grading scripts. The TA ran the tests "by hand" and I ended up with 100/100 (of course) with a thank-you for exposing the error. No smiley face here though. :(
