Comments:

Ended up with a much higher score than I expected, with the SFI at the start
significantly lower than during CQWW CW, when I was SOSB10. As others on the
West Coast have commented, Friday evening (local) was only good for about 1.5
hrs. Saturday morning, no EU. Sunday morning some EU for about an hour. However,
the many available W/VE stations made it fun - you get the same number of QSO
points for working a W8 as you do an EA. Why spend your time in a pileup to work
a country you've already worked for a mult.
