I agree that technology has facilitated the ease at which logs can be
sent in. However, comparing the reporting of trading blocks and contest
logs are not quite the same. Trading implies computer direct
connections and offices located in major trading centers (New York,
Chicago, London, Tokyo). That is a major contrast to a remote station
located in Banjul.
Nonetheless, I would suggest that the CQ Committee consider a tiered
approach to log submission - similar to what RDXC does. If you think
you've got a high scoring log - one that will be a world top ten log -
you must submit it within five days of the end of the contest (by 2359z
Friday). If you just played around to work points for the club or for
your own goals, then you have 30 days as your score (and any creativity
you undertake) will be unlikely to affect top rankings.
