Default RIP Tomas Reich - SGP Chile

You want to "dis incentivize" risky behavior and minimize "risk" in a contest, here's your new rules:

-No saves below 1500 ft AGL hard deck, your scoring stops
-fly closer than 1000 fr to any mountain surface your scoring stops
-no more than 3 planes in a gaggle, you find your own or wait till someone departs
- all thermals must be flown using left turns no matter where on task cause some idiot might enter your thermal the other way
-no flying closer than 400 ft to nearest ship
- no peeing unless you have a cathiter cause thats a distraction
-fly slower than 3knots of your ships published stall speed and your scoring stops
-on a strong convection day (500fpm+) no flight speed greater than your ships max manuver speed.

Add these to all the existing rules, and there you have it, minimum risk max dis incentives.

IF some goof wants to enact all those rules at a contest, we will STILL be having this conversation a year from now when some goof has an accident and we all moan n groan wringing our hands about how risky contest flying has become and what NEW rules we can enplace to help keep someone alive. Now see who wants to come out and fly that contest.
