I believe Paul ;) 
If it be happened, R32F will be made more QSO then R33A
and made more difference on the final score.
Look at this:

R32F	100    RW1AC/RA1AIP	R32F	3440	10617	144	242	386
4 098 162
R33A	  86    ES5TV/ES2RR   	R33A	3453	10501	152	237	389
4 084 889

If the people on the WRTC compete for most high numbers of QSO, then all
those talks about
number of spots will make some kind of sense. The formula of this
competition are more complicated
and it's fine.  R32F won the WRTC by got more point for QSO even lose the 3
multiplayer. 
And there is nothing about the spots.


73!
