Then NIL him. Enough people do that, guess who's not winning any contest.

Was this one QSO worth blowing all the QSOs you wasted by haranguing him?

No, you cannot legislate intelligence.

All we need to do is ask Mr. 5nn ak for enough fills and he'll eventually
get the hint that he's losing lots and lots of time and straighten out.

You would think so, but when I asked for NR, I got the same thing.  I asked
for p-o-w-e-r & got the same AK.  Then I got dumped, and it took several
minutes of calling again to finally get my question answered (with a
different cut number).

Just like with Politicians, I know intelligence can not be legislated.
HOWEVER, Contest Sponsors have the ability to DQ those who don't follow the
rules, and the rules ***SHOULD*** Clarify what cut numbers are permitted and
anything else is subject to DQ.

Fortunately (this time), I am obviously not the only one who is fed up with
the bizarre cut number crap.
