How about creating a single-op assisted category?  I never use packet
spots because I like contesting entirely on my own, but it's not fair
to compete against assisted stations.  That would allow guys like me
to do WRTC-style bare bones contesting, which I greatly admire.  I
guess I sound like an old fogey here, but to me, contesting should
either be one guy against the world, or a bunch of guys working
together like in a club situation.  Having one guy with packet
assistance somehow violates my sense of what it's all about.  :-) 

I realize opinions differ, but wouldn't that be better?
