A question, and disagreement has come up about LSF competition requirements
between a friend and myself.
On the website and on the voucher is outlined two scoring systems the"Place
System" and the"Points System".
Stated, "Two alternative methods of scoring may be used to meet competition
requirments. Either the Place System, where a place is recognized to be
first(1st, second(2nd), or third(3rd) in the final standings of a contest:
or the Competition Points System, where a minimum total of competition
points from any six (6) contests may be used."(here I cut out some
unimportant, for this matter, info on exactly how the score is derived), and
then the last line, "A minimum of six (6) contests must be flown no matter
which scoring method is used."
The question is, when using the Points System, how many contests can be
used, basically added together, to come up to the minimum points requirment
for a given Level?
I would be very interested in hearing from some of you older, high level LSF
members, on this as one of us( my friend and I) has the opinion that you may
add as many contests together as needed to get to the minimum total pionts
required and one of us thinks you can only add 6 contests together to get
the points.
The final line seems to be up for interprtation. "A minimum of six (6)
contests must be flown no matter which scoring method is used." One of us
says this line implies any number of contests can be added together to get
the total points needed. One of us says that this line is there to make you
fly at least 6 contests to achieve the next level. Due to the fact that an
aspirant could fly one contest(for some Levels) and be done with the
competition requirments needed if it were not fot the last line.
Any comments will be appreciated.
