Nobody wants to get that award! Better to recognize the Best Crewing Award .....

Jamie,
Im with JJ on this one 100%. Your "Brick" award blows and here's why; Every year the pilots who fly the most XC KM will probably win the award. I'm on track to win such an award (If my group had one) or at least tie for it, and yet I have had a year filled with personal bests. I get to put up with comments all the time (And don't get me wrong, I fully realize most of it is good natured hazing) some of which come from pilots who never leave gliding distance of the home field. Here again, I fully realize some pilots get fulfillment out of the sport at this level and if a pilot gets enjoyment out of flagpole sitting year after year more power to him but these are some of the people that I have heard put up the harshest criticism. That said, it always warms my heart when I pick up the phone a never have a problem getting help with a retrieve. Ditch the award. You can come up with something better.
