I hate the contest....

In last year I participated on CW and tried to get QTCs from DX stations.
If I did not get the right, due QRM on the freq, and asked dx to repeat,
somebody STRONG quickly send "r" to DX and the DX continued.
I wrote down all I get and did not send "r"s. Somebody else did it for me.

An other "phenomena" was when the DX offered QTCs to me (I did not
asked them anymore). Ok, I replied "ga", but somebody STRONG  came
over and sent "NO" and the DX continued his pileup.


No, I dont hate the contest but...
