I got it -
How about 100 pts for skimming the logs after the contest, assembling a list of
the domestic Zero-Point calls from the logfile, and extending an introductory
email about the world of contesting to each callsign, offering advice /
assistance in operating in the NEXT contest.
100 Pts for each converted contester from your logs.
There's a Ham who took the time to get on the air and work stations he/she
could hear, but didn't understand (or know where to find information about) the
rules of the contest.
That's my vote...

Been hit by it "not in log" while I know I worked the station.
Time to remove the 3 QSO "PENALTIES"
They are illogical, have no parallel in real life tests and causing of
scratching unsure QSOs and penalizing the other station by creating not in log
entry.
The argument of "teaching us the lesson" of logging carefully is just plain
silly.
Bad QSO is just bad QSO and should be removed, not counted, period.
Time to mature!!!
Oh, and add ONE point for domestic - own country QSOs in CQ WW. Another
overdue and timely change for better!
