Unfortunately this sort of thinking does little to encourage new 
participants!

An SO1R participant is a different class of contestant than SO2R 
participant!

The sooner the contest community addresses problems like these with some 
innovative thinking the more likely we will be to attract new participants - 
most, if not all, of which, will start off as SO1R and then migrate to SO2R 
once hooked.

Come guys lets get creative about these sort of issues! Frequently it does 
not require the creation of another class or more paper/plaques BUT simply a 
better on-line reporting system that allows contestants to compare 
themselves with competitors with  similar setup!
