Perhaps a note to Tom is in order?
Discontinued contests are included in the N1MM drop-down list to allow you to open an old database/log of that previous contest. Without that contest definition - the fields, exchange, and scoring would be unavailable.

In N1MM+ there is <Rules> button on the contest setup dialog page. After selecting (what you think is) the right contest, get in the habit of pressing the Rules button - which will take you to the sponsor's website and ensure that you have chosen the correct acronym. ( Is it BARTGSRTTY? or BARTRTTYS? ) That's also an easy way to re-familiarize yourself with the rules prior to starting.

There never has been a BARTG 'Spring' HF contest.  That's just something
very confusing that gets around. It just happens that one contest is in
March.

Sorry about that, John. At one time N1MM Logger had it listed as
"Spring".  They have since corrected it but the melody lingers on.  In
fact, their abbreviated contest list still shows it as BARTGSRTTY,
with the "S" standing for Spring. Perhaps a note to Tom is in order?

HF RTTY it is.
