Is the maya batch render submission process the same for Maxwell animation as for other animation through Maya?

I submitted a Maya batch job around 8 pm last night, SL = 1.

I ran 13 frames. It seemed to work fine.

At 2 AM I resubmitted the job, 72 frames, SL = 9, to see what would happen.

At 6PM today I checked on the job. It had only rendered 4 frames, and those frames were all dated around the 8PM hour, but when I looked at them they had SL=9 quality, not SL=1, so I know they were new frames - but with old dates.

Huge disappointment.

Does Maxwell/Maya plugin get confused if you don't delete old frames?

Is batch render the best way to submit a Maxwell animation through Maya?
