I have made lots of skeds on 6M and 2M during contests (both as a single-op 
and multi-op).  The success rate has been very good.  I usually set skeds 
with guys who I know: 1) will show up, 2) are good scatter ops and 3) have a 
good station. 

Skeds are fun and can be a good way to fill in some holes in the grid map.  
Sitting by the rig at 4:00 AM listening to static is not fun.  Setting a few 
skeds to work in between some randoms makes for a fun morning.
