A couple observations.  1) Makrothen is distance based and ZS is kinda
off in a corner by itself (density of hams wise) so most of your QSOs
will be worth more points for both ends making you desirable
regardless of power level.  2) To the best of my knowledge, there are
no contests with mandatory participation, at least in FCC regulated
entities.
