All this talk about landings has my head spinning. What about launching? Some people launch higher than others. Is that a true test of soaring if you get an advantage right off the start? ;-)
Stop it!!!! 8-)
The only thing I can contribute to this thread is that ideas need to be tried to be proven, and there is no single magic answer that will cure all wrongs, there always seems that there is a compromise.
The MoM format that we fly today in the OVSS evolved to what it is today through trial and error on the field in real contests. It wasn't just put together in a day, it has literally taken years to tweak it in. Some ideas have come from individuals, some have come from discussions on this exchange, but none of them were proven until we tried them. It becomes fairly clear what works and what doesn't work at that point.
