oops By Bad,  I took what the other guy was saying without actually 
reading the real rules them selves.

Isn't that what the rules say?
 *1. Classic Operator (CLASSIC):* The entrant will use only one radio, 
no QSO alerting assistance, and may operate up to 24 of the 48 hours – 
*off times are a minimum of 60 minutes during which no QSO is 
logged.* If the log shows more than 24 hours of operation, only the 
first 24 hours will be counted for the overlay score. The one radio 
must not be able to receive while transmitting.

        What a shame!
        The Classic Overlay has been changed from any 24 hours to the
        first 24 hours.  What we have now is a mini-iron butt contest
        instead of a contest in which the operator can choose the best
        24 hours to suit his/her situation and QTH. It defeats the
        purpose of have a 24 hour category - IMHO
