BJCP regulated?
One of three things happened:
1) you entered a beer into world class competition
2) Tasting exhaustion caused by lack of judges
3) inexperienced judges
Sometimes when you get inexperienced judges or not enough judges together they score higher than they should. There is a chance that they are getting "alcohol exhaustion" or they just don't know the style. NOT saying your beer is not worth a 42, but maybe the other beers were scored up because of this.

Well I thing it was more of #1... There was some serious BIG GUNS at this comp. Almost 350 entries but there was a lot of American Ale flights...One of my Judges was a Grand Master 2 and the other is pretty darn experienced. Oh yeah... It was BJCP rated
I'm just more impressed with all the great beers yesterday.
