If I may expand on this, repeating myself from the last discussion that went
this direction... if you are watching video or listening for yourself, YOU
ARE LOSING!  So no, this is not for serious operators, it is fun and
hopefully makes contesting more interesting for non-contesters or those just
getting on to play around a bit.

If case you haven't noticed, there are now real time score posting
capabilities available for at least 3 loggers, WriteLog, WinTest, and N1MM
Logger can all post automatically to the real time scoreboard.  Please, even
if you don't want to watch, post your scores so others can get a better
picture of the competition.  I would especially like to see more M/M
stations posting!
