That's exactly my approach Peter... if a contest has no category that appeals me I just don't play it, I have never asked a sponsor to alter the rules to fit my contesting preferences and I am not asking for that now, I was just making a comment about the "many" categories referred to in the original post.

I'll just shut up now...

I never understand this.  To my knowledge, no operators are required
to participate in this or any other contest.  If the rules aren't to
an operator's liking ... they shouldn't participate.  It's pretty
simple.
