Why impose a time limit?  My favorite contest is SS, but I absolutely HATE
the mandatory 6 hours rest imposed.

Having said that, what's wrong with having a lot of folks who just "jump
in" for a few Q's?  Truth be told, except for SS I just hop on contests
like the FyeNighFoe to get a dose of radio-fix, not too set a new NA
record.  We don't need no steenkin' rest!
