Extra points

Post by webberg »

I seem to recall we had a league once whereby you scored one point for meeting another FS in your home country and two points if you met them outside your home country.

Obviously with lockdown if this were resurrected, it would be a low scoring competition.

Next year tho....

I have family now in the Boston area. They are soon to move to Gorham, Maine (just in time for winter) but I'm hoping we'll be regular visitors.

Do we have FSers in that area?

The scoring looooooong since lapsed. Major points were always scored at race meets in the past but as FS members infrequently attend and of course events are moving to on-line it'll be a long time before there'll be enough movement to resurrect it I think. One for the future maybe though !
