When they saw that there was no warming happening in the Antarctic and they realised they couldn't «adjust» the temperature records in the Antarctic (because they were carried out properly by scientists on - site) like they did in the Arctic, they changed the models to
show less warming in the Antarctic (even though there is no logical reason for CO2 to impact the Antarctic less that Arctic.)

showing less warming, remove other adjacent stations that might be doing the same, but leave any stations that are showing more warming.
