Whoa David...slow down!
What ever happened to consultation/feedback/discussion?
Is this the way contests were initiated in the past/present?

The UKAC stands for United Kingdom Activity Contest.
1st, 2nd, 3rd, 4th and sometimes 5th Tuesday in the month.
Easy to remember, regular as clockwork.
Could you explain why on earth you would not use that contest but propose a completely new cumulative event to be more UK inclusive?
I have a hard enough job remembering when the 80cc's are on to give some points away. I forget most of the time because mixed days/dates are not so easy to recall as a fixed day when you have other things to do or family to think about. Even my wife now knows Tuesday's I'll disappear to the shack for a few hours. If she can do it, anyone can!
