Default Shorter Competitions

One feedback on this idea is imagine you set up a whole competition,
organized all the volunteers, staff and get everyone to show up then
you have bad weather 2 days in a row. That destroys a short event,
but a 6+ day event it still leaves you with 4 days and is still worth
the major effort to organize and attend.

Having said that, who says that the event has to be a single row of
consecutive days? We fly as many weekends as are feasible each season
in the GTA. Each season is an event in this sense.

It would be nice if we could figure out how to sanction this type of
competition as a regional equivalent.
