[CQ-Contest] Categories, Participation and Competition

[K0HB]

Beware of unintended consequences.

Imagine for a moment a 12-hour Sweepstakes category.

Would it bring in any additional competitors.  My guess is "Yes, a few".

Then imagine Sunday afternoon, when half of the players suddenly decide 
"This is too slow.  I'll just submit my high rate 12-hour log, QRT, and go 
watch the Lions game.  (Well, OK, maybe not the Lions game, maybe I'll catch 
up on some honey-do's!)"
