[RTTY] Score Posting

[Shelby Summerville]

I'm "relatively" new (6 years) to RTTY contesting, and while I agree that
the "most efficient" score reporting is 3830, that venue has not always been
available to RTTY contest's! Prior to 3830 becoming available, most
participants would post their scores to WF1B reflector, RTTY reflector
predecessor, for comparison and comments. Those scores were summarized by
some very diligent individuals, and posted at various times for all to see.
Very difficult to break old habits! Comments, both good and controversial,
would "fly back and forth" between the participants, and personally, I
learned a lot from most of the comments!.... "guilty as charged", I made
several "controversial" comments! Regardless, IMHO, there is a much more
accepted discussion between RTTY contest participants, than there is among
CW/SSB? Personally, I find a discussion of a, just completed, RTTY contest
far more entertaining than "all of the reasons why use of packet cluster
information has led to the complete destruction of contesting"! I doubt very
seriously if any of us do not have a "delete" key on our keyboard, possibly
it should be put to more use?
C'Ya, Shelby
