Default Competition Standings

Hey Nabil and/or Dave -

Made myself a little spreadsheet for the comp standings, and need to verify a couple things...

You guys use the 50 point rule for DNS (did not start), right?

And Nabil, you said we'd toss one high score - including no shows, yes?

Ty

Yep 50pts for a DNS and yes we are gonna toss one comp out so if you did not make one you can toss that one out at the end. If you made em' all then your highest score goes. I have a spreadsheet myself.

Seems I was the winner on saturday since out of the top 3 my rig is the only one that did not go swiming at Elfin later.

Thanks for the reply, and I'm surprised you need a spreadsheet to figure out you're kicking everyone's ass.

Regarding the dunking of rigs in a City of San Narcos protected wildlife refuge wetland area, anyone who actually touched the the water needs to file a SWPP (Stormwater Protection Plan) outlining how you plan on mitigating the impact of your toxic rubber tires (or shoes, urine, etc.) on the downstream watertable. I'm sure the Rangers have the proper forms.

Fun event, fun location until we got booted.
