Default US Competition Pilot Poll and Election

"The result is ZERO sailplane racing remains in the USA... Do we want "some" real, objective racing competiton in the USA or only timed, pilot option, OLC games? "

Wow. So, the IGC requirement for 1/3 assigned tasks, vs. US allows all assigned tasks but typically has fewer, plus the IGC devaluation formula that boosts distance score based on landouts up to 1000 points rather than... heck, I don't know the rules either, something like 750 in the US, adds up to "zero" racing in the US?

I think at this point the hyperbole undermines any sensible discussion.
