Agreed.

Completely agreed.
There is nothing wrong with educating SM2 competitors as to how the system
works though, so they at least they have the opportunity to work within it
if they choose to.
But the bottom line is that they MUST come out and play, or the class is
killed.

I'm not trying to change the system _at all_! There are some... oddities...
about how it is designed (early season attendence results count for a LOT)
but I'm willing to work within it. And like I said in the previous post -
did you read it all the way through? - there is value in setting the bar
high. New classes must be successful; we have no room for Yet Another
Undersubscribed Class. If that means that those who would see a new class
created have to work hard in the first few years to get it on its feet so
quickly, so be it. If one is not willing to work for its success, one does
not deserve to have the class.
Alan, we AGREE with each other completely. Where's the beef?
