Default Outlanding Award - Feedback Requested

This is a great idea. If you spend any time at all looking at landout logs from contests, you see atrocious off field landings. Thermaling at 175 feet ( yes, there is a log from a contest this year with such), straight in landings, "patterns" at 42 knots. Celebrating properly executed off field landings is a great idea.

How about the pile of coal prize for the worst log? Strip out the pilot and glider identifier and send in the log that most exemplifies how not to do it.
