I will blame lack of sleep.

Forgot to say, my operation was CW only.

A fun contest!  I got on Sat. evening, planning to operate only a few hours,

Subject: MOVE DATES FOR WPX

        I agree with the suggestion to move CQ-WPX CW up to april 
        since Dayton is moving to May.  I think this would stimulate 
        activity.  Conditions are usually stinko in May.  [Wayne, NX7K]

Only if you ignore the contesters in the southern hemisphere.

Of course, the "major" contests already hurt them because those are
held in their summer and typically end mid-morning on Monday.  You
ever wonder why there is relatively little activity from VK and ZL
in e.g. CQWW? - when I did M/S CQWW-cw a few years ago we had to
call "CQ ZL" to find one on 15m a couple of hours before the contest
ended.

To be fair, perhaps we should just move all the international contests 
to March and September and the domestic ones to December....
