Nonetheless, I have to wonder why anyone would boycott a particular QSO
party because of its rules. Do you really care about your QSO party
score, or do you get on for the fun of working people? I've always
assumed that the only people who cared about scores were the in-state
folks anyway.

I've long enjoyed working QSO parties, and have won a few, but one
scoring rule for many of them discourage my participation, and caused me
to avoid them. The rule awarding multipliers to in-state stations for
their counties causes mobiles to avoid the higher bands while those
bands are still open, causing me to miss multipliers. I won't be on for
TXQP and the Salmon Run, both this weekend.
Other parties that I've worked in the past but abandoned for that reason
include TNQP, NEQP, and PAQP.
Parties that I will work include FLQP, GAQP, 7QP, and CQP.
