That was my point. Encouraging duplicate Q's while others wait for their first, 
is out of place in my opinion at a rare entity...but high fiving has become the 
way of life nowadays.

Reducing a leader board number is silly when the purpose of it, is to show who 
made the most. How does that matter if they reduce that number. The QSO still 
counts.

Making it  difficult to get a new one by encouraging high contact totals, is 
not sport for me. But they run it how they like...the heck with the new 
guy...let him spend the money for the antennas and get with it.

You are right there, Joe.

What gets me is these guys that brag, "I worked them 27 times on 6 different 
modes."  Why!!!!!

Every time they make duplicate contacts, they cut someone else out of getting a 
contact.  Everyone doesn't have stacks and 1500 watts to try and work these 
DX'peditions.  After you work them on every band, chill and let someone else 
work them.  73
