That I agree with. Only Visible by people posting their own data!

   I understand that some people may not want to share their score. That's
perfectly acceptable. However, to ensure a level playing field, it might be
best to limit live scoreboard access to those who are posting

This is a sort of "freedom of religion" issue with me.  I'm currently my
way around the sun for the 85th time, and I tend to push back if
"compelled" to do something which doesn't benefit me.  I march to my own
drummer.

I don't perceive any benefit to me to participate in online scoreboards,
and it eats up some of my "data allowance" with my ISP.

Mostly, with the exception of a couple of domestic contests, I'm not
likely to make any "top 10" list, so my participation in any contest is
solely for the "thrill of working a lot of guys on CW during the weekend".
The only reason I'll turn in a log for most contests is to help Minnesota
Wireless Assn in those tests with "Club Competition".  N0HJZ will nag me if
I don't.

So if my log won't be accepted without participation in online
scoreboards, then I won't send it in.

Meanwhile I will enjoy the time on the air just as much as I have for 60
years.  The guys who work me will not be any the wiser, and their score
will not be affected.

CU all on CQWW CW in a couple of days.

I can't wait for sponsors to start compelling its use.
