While it may not be "nasty", it's evident that something there is blatantly unfair. I estimate, and it's probably a conservative estimate, that one spot is worth at least 10 additional QSOs. One WRTC

No impact - where the number of spots for each team varied from 1 to 121? Of course there was an impact. Look at the results. A single additional spot for ES5TV/ES2RR could have made them winners. On
