Since everyone else did, here's my twocents.gif Why not have a 1st, 2nd, and 3rd place gift card($15---$10---and $5) I believe that is the correct gift card allocations. That spreads the wealth and gives a little incentive. boxers.gif

I liked the 20 minutes between rounds! it allowed me to fly, and the 5 minute till combat announcement worked too!! might need to use the PA though?

Well, had a chance to run things by Enzo, he did have a great suggestion as for the drawings....instead of $15, $10 & $5. He thought $10 each would be nice....I kind of like the sound of that...anyone else??

Besides that, he loved the new rules and hopes it brings combat up a notch this year!!

Tony,

I will bring my recorder to the field today (Saturday) or I can e-mail it to you tonight. I stated building a new system last night and still need to mount the old hard drive.

OK, so why have points again??? unsure.gif

It would take some book keeping but maybe keep tally of the points over the season, average them and the person with the highest average gets a grand prize at the end of the year??? (points will count for something then)

Just my personal op, I think 5 is kind of high for the prize requirement and not sure about the drawing. I understand the reasoning, but all a person would have to do is fly for a couple of seconds in 1 round, land then kick back and skip the others?? It may lead to non agressive flying and boring combat?? Still think that rounds ought to back down to 5 min too, lol. stirthepot.gif stirthepot.gif stirthepot.gif

Enzo and I were talking about that last night, also. We were coming up with some kind of point system to have a winner at the end of the season. Things are still being pounded out!!!


Change is good...so I'm open to changes and tweaking!! Just remember, there is no way to please everyone, but I'll try and find a happy medium!!
