Region 2 at Mifflin is now over. We flew 6 out of 7 days and had a great
time. I am happy to report that after several years of bad contest weather,
the law of averages finally went our way, and we had a great week. I will
also say that anyone who gave up on this site, did so much too soon. We
crowned champions in 3 classes, and I have to say one young man with his
first contest win, and he gained the ground to win on the last day!!!!

I also saw a remark aimed at us by the Cordele contest earlier in the week
that made me laugh. Seems that CD Capt. Andy Mc Quig made the comment that
since we landed out over 30 gliders on a day that they launched 26 and
landed out only 1, that Cordele was the"prefered" place to fly. Seems that
Andy's brain is fried a little more than usual, and that is bad. You see
Andy, it seems that more people would rather come here and land out, than
fly at Cordele at all!!!!!! Get your facts straight, grow up, and keep these
stupid comments off the SSA official web site. That kind of crap is not true
contest reporting, it is a bunch of BULL**** and you know it!!!!!!!!!!

Some of the guys forgot the "2 between any one rule" and had in valid
legs
that the prelim sheet had not factored in yet, and one guy turned in 15
turnpoints and was only allowed 11. The few guys that got bit by the
turnpoint repeat rule suffered badly from lost distance.

The SSA report says:

The preliminary score sheet drew a big crowd, but being a MAT, it
changed a little until some of the rules problems were weeded out.

Does anyone know what happened?
