That's why I think IF ANY DIRECTIONAL CQ ARE CALLED FOR, then those

get in and the DX op does not have to guess what geo area is best

general calls, directional calls, and calls by numbers
If an operation decides to do anything other than general calls then
by continent is fair -- just alternate regularly so one side doesn't
feel like they're getting the short-end. As to going by numbers,
we've had that discussion a few times already. I know you like it,
and as semi-rare DX, it's your choice to do so, but from *this* side
of the pileup it's FAR easier when it's just wide open. It actively
slows it down going by numbers. IMHO.
