Another milestone in contesting!

The progress can be followed in real time on the live Interham scoreboard two 
hours before the contest. Dan Rather and CNN declared him winer based on the 
exit polls.
Hundreds of hams quit in frustration, seeing that they can't catch up. Those 
busy watching the progress forgot to make QSOs. Live CAMs kept other 
contesters off the bands, they were dazzled by the live video from the last year's 
contest.

He could have won with -5 points. One QSO he will make is penalized with 5 
QSOs taken out, jus' to teach him a lesson (dude deleted the QSO, wasn't sure DG 
was series)!!!
50 zero pointers with other MA stations were nothing to be multiplied. That 
saved him from embarrassment  -5 x 0 = 0 final score, still positive score and 
a record, that will never be beaten.
There is always next year's running. .... the rest of the story
