Interestingly enough, there is a "ghost" on the island, but no, she was not
part of the team....
I WAS.   Don't recollect reading that MM0Q was going to be a SO operation
this year  or
did I miss something.

Having been part of  GM2T team on previous IOTA contests,  I presume that
all know I always
play by the rules, will continue to do so and never air any dirty washing in
public!

If the rules issue has really been thrashed to death, why has the contest
committee not carved
the rules in stone and revamped all items which are subject to individual
interpretation and let us
all get on taking part in contests at our own individual levels of ability
and enjoying the post
contest experience. This IS a hobby, isn't it?
