Does the ABPN care if I repeat a CME course for maintenance of certification? What about state medical board CME licensure requirements?

I tried calling state medical boards where I'm licensed and also the ABPN, but I wasn't able to reach a person to answer my question. Their websites don't address this question. I sent them emails, too, but wondered if anyone here knows the answer.
 
I got this answer from the ABPN:
"For the CME credits you need, we accept any Category 1 CME credits relevant to your practice (they do not need to be ABPN-approved/listed on the Approved Products List). You are welcome to repeat CME activities if you still think you can acquire new/more information from it. If audited, you would need to provide the CME documentation from both times."
