Actually, I feel exactly the opposite!  In most contests (with the
exception
of November Sweepstakes) I consider myself a casual operator, but take
some
pride in trying to turn in the mythical golden error free log.  (Notice
I said 
"trying"!)

I enthusiastically welcome this new effort to determine who the *really*
good operators are.

Same with me, and if my "best shot" is more accurate than your "best
shot", 
then I want to win.  

If my log is full of busted exchanges, then I want to know that too, so
I
can beat you next year.

  Observation the morning after the contest:

  "A logging computer lets you make more mistakes faster than 
   any invention in human history -- with the possible 
   exceptions of a quart of tequila and a borrowed Vibroplex 
   key." K0HB
