Interpreting certain AR results

Hello there.

There are certain AccurateRip results that have been puzzling me lately:

What would "No match but offset" suggest here? I've read that it's used as some kind of a "pressing-detector", but couldn't understand much (sorry). The second log comes from a rather rare record that I no longer own (and wasn't in AR's database at the time it was ripped), so I'd really like to resolve this. Note that there are no audible glitches whatsoever, and as far as memory serves me, the CD was not scratched or anything.

Thank you for your assistance.

Okay, I did some further research and realized that the second log basically meant that the rip was not accurate, just as I had suspected. By a sheer coincidence, a friend of mine had just ran across the same record (thank goodness we have the same taste in music), so I was able to "successfully" re-rip it.

You've no idea how relieved I am.

The results you posted are from a CUETools log.
No match but offset suggests that there is an AccurateRip record at that offset, your file data starts at that offset, but the CRC of your file doesn't match the CRC in the AccurateRip record.
To further confuse you. The top half of the log shows AccurateRip V1 CRC results, the bottom half AccurateRip V2 CRC results. No match but offset in the upper half suggests your files start off correctly but don't match the V1 CRCs. The Accurately ripped in bottom half shows they do match the V2 CRCs.
The next version of Cuetools will put the V1 and V2 results side-by-side (V1+V2/Y), so your results would look like
